User talk:James Stafford
Born in Caerphilly on 20th March 1988, has taken residence in Bargoed ever since.
The Beginning (1988-1992)
Stafford was infamously known as a Hell Raiser during his time in Bargoed Nursery. During his toddler years he experienced many adventures, ranging from taking goldfish to running away from home to his Nanna's. During this period his sister was born, Jessica, who he had considered evil to this day but as brotherly love goes this is no change. He left Bargoed Nursery in July 1992, and entered his next conquest in Caerphilly, aged 4.
The Early Years (1992-1999)
The end of the millenium period was fluctuation with highs and low for young James. James was a young Catholic and this meant his next destination ironically was a Catholic School, where he made many friends. He sustained a scar around his right eye at the age of 6, which is stall there to this day. Here he realised his true potential in Mathemmatics, as he gained a magnificant 98/100 in his Key Stage 3 SATs and also his potential as a stripper after "accidentally" running into the school gym in his birthday suit. This meant James left Primary School on a high and naked to his next conquest of Cardinal Newman School.
Realising his potential (1999-2005)
During his time in Newman's he has excelled himself to withering heights. During his time there he won the Lynn James Award as well as gaining superb GCSE and AS Level results. He learnt to play the Clarinet as well as becoming a valued member of the school, through Rugby and the Orchestra. From Year 7 to 12, he has gone from strength to strength and had developed a massive interest in politics as did many of his friends.
The Start of Something Special [ 8/7/05]
James' first real opportunity to shine as the next head boy and set an example for his future underlings, ended with great aplomb. Setting the scene it was the 6th form ball, James arrives looking rather dashing as usual but also unusually sober. After 10 minutes the revelery gets to him, all of a sudden he's proclaiming " I am superman!", he obviously didnt have the alcoholic stamina as many othe ginger Irishmen. Dancing like a maniac possessed, the example he sets is one of partying like an animal, showing us all how not to behave. After many a gin and tonic he then resorts to violence, by punching his right-hand man Michael McDonald. Luckily this didnt turn out to be the end of our hero, as the ever diplomatic Monsiuer McDonald took it all in a jocular manner. Soon after this event the party dispersed for fear of violence between "Superman" and the mighty McDonald.
The Start of Something Special Part 2
Whilst waiting for his transportation, James then decides to use his supermanly powers (no not the sheer prooduction of sweat) to fly over the four lane road outside to ask for forgiveness from McDonald, but is halted from this near death experience from fellow ginger David Morgan. This was indeed the start of something special, this was the beginning of James "Superman" Stafford the partying ginger animal.
The Head Boy Era [2005- )
James was appointed Head Boy in June 2005, and was welcomed by the entire school. During he brief time as Head Boy he has achieved some of his goals but hopefully he will achieve all of his goals and make life better, so he will leave his mark on the school forever, by March 2006.
At the moment
Currently he is trying to gain a place in Cambridge University for September 2006 to study mathematics, because ever since he has been able to pick up a calculator he has had a passion for numbers. He is now a "powerful" member of the school community, and with this "power" he aims to make Sixth Form life better forever. His job is in his words "Amazing, Superb, Cool!" May this good fortune long continue.
Rumours of Far-Leftism
James considered these rumours partly true as he admits to supporing Left ideology but he doen't admit to being a Communist. He considers the Stalin era to be brutal but he considers the Far-right to be evil or mis-lead. Many political commentators consider him to be left of centre, of which he approves of.
The book
You will be able to purchase the autobiography of James Stafford sometime next year. It is entitled "James Stafford: The Party Era". He is also working on another book 'How to be a party animal volume 1' in which he shares his valuable knowledge, and various techniques on how to party like it was 1999, this is going to be the how-to book of the decade.
Obituary
James Robert Stafford 1988-2010. After graduating from the University of Glamorgan in 2008 with a first in mathematics, James was never far from a calcualtor and the calculator was never far from him. This love of the electronic abbacus brought about his timely demise after suffering a freak accident in his bathroom. His newly powered euclidean calculator slipped from his grasp and electrocuted him, there was no eureaka moment in the bath for this genius. He will be sorely missed by not many, but a few. After finishing Glamorgan, he opened with much applause the Pontypridd Stock Exchange on Taff Street, it was seen as economic genius by all, but was doomed to failure after the 2009 great depression, even the great Stafford could not halt it. Likened by many to Gustav Stresemann his efforts and pleas to the rest of the world fell on deaf ears.However his short life was not all doom and gloom, in 2010 he was married to a wonderful "iron" woman, whom we will not disclose, but the short period that followed was a great and shining example to the single of the world. Also, due to his efforts he was awarded post humously a knighthood, and became Sir James Robert Stafford one whom some loved and will miss.
