Okay, let me have a go - you know you're an Iron Maiden fan when:
1) You laugh at the wind and howl at the rain,
2) Your library includes works by Aldous Huxley, William Golding and Frank Herbert, and poetry by Samuel Taylor Coleridge,
3) You see sixes all the way (no reference to any member of this board intended!),
4) You start tracking down obscure flicks like
Quest for Fire,
Children of the Damned and
Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner, to add to your collection that already includes
Where Eagles Dare and
The Fugitive,
5) You watch the world exploding every single night,
6) You can't keep a straight face when you meet a woman and she tells you her name is Charlotte,
7) You wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead,
8) Your ears prick up whenever West Ham is mentioned, even though you hate football.
(I have to admit that I personally fail on a few of these points ...
)
