Who is Drogo Michie?

Is he the baddie from The Usual Suspects? Nope.
Is he Blackburn Rovers reserve goalie? Nope.
Is his name an anagram for I'm Heroic God? Well, yes.

But, Drogo (named after a castle in Devon - hippy parents) Michie (pronounced Mickey), the man behind Rooster, is like Ben and me, a man of a certain age, with a wife and kids, a couple of motorbikes and an itch to do something more fulfilling out of work hours, than sit staring at the TV or leaving inane comments on forums or typing a bloody blog (er...). He's a do-er. We love Drogo Michie.
And he caught this pike last weekend. G

  2. Cook it? What kind of heathen do you think he is. He made it into a pair of slippers, then finest pike slippers West London has seen. G

  6. Fantastic, he caught a pike with a pair of plyers? How cool and he can hold a camera steady, unlike most people left in charge of cameras, I checked some Deus film and it was unwatchable. Big Up fellers. Easty
