So this is a bit self indulgent, but we're coming up to the 20th anniversary of my discovery that "its not just me".

For me it was FHM doing a feature on Splosh! Magazine. It genuinely changed my life.

So here's to my 20th, and here's to Bill Shipton

Seriously, that image alone drove me crazy all the way home from Glasgow to Chester (about 6 hours in the day lol)
From that moment on Bill and Hailey became heroes to me.
Used to hide Splosh! Magazines in the bottom of board games.... and if I remember... pie eyed wives in a vhs case of evil dead 2

Goodness, I think I have a few years on you, but I still remember the feeling that it wasn't just me when on a whim at university I dropped into a private shop in Leicester Square asking about mud wrestling. They went and found a copy of Splosh! and the rest, as they say is history!

God bless Bill Shipton - in an age when the internet didn't really exist (shit! Am I really that old now! ) Splosh! magazine was a gateway to a new world.

So, I raise a glass of custard to your twenty years!

I remember seeing that issue and racing to shop to buy it ASAP as it blew my mind and I realized that I wasn't on my own too.

I remember seeing the Sky TV programme British Sex and them showing the Muck and Mud club on it and some Splosh stuff (which I missed).

Bill was a genius bless him.
