Brian: So, Kev what’s your earliest memory of me?

Kevin: I remember going to your house to play with you and your brother Harold, who’s the same age as me. Sometimes you both used to come and play on our farm and you used to bring all your toys with you. I can also really remember the time when you were in the hospital because of your heart problems, but I wasn’t allowed to visit you because I was too small!

Brian: Do you remember our favourite game?

Kevin: Sure! We always played Star Wars. I was always Darth Vader and Harold was Luke Skywalker, but we never wanted you to play because you were still too young! Whenever we picked on you, Harold and I used to get told of by our parents! We also had a cassette player that we used to record songs on – actually, I’ve still got those tapes. Sometimes we’d just talk into it, or we acted as if we were in a pop group and tried to do it professionally, like with harmonies and everything. Man, that brings back memories.

Brian: What was your favourite toy?

Kevin: My BMX bike. They’d just come on to the market and I thought I was so cool with the bike. I rode it everywhere, and I thought everyone was so jealous of me on my cool, new BMX!

Brian: Did we ever fight?

Kevin: When you got a new toy, Harold and I used to take it away from you just to annoy you, but we never really used to fight because there was such an age gap between us – it wouldn’t really have been fair, would it!

Brian: What do you like best about me?

Kevin: I like the way you approach everything in a relaxed way, although sometimes you’re just too darn relaxed! When I’m stressed I become totally serious, but when you’re stressed you just crack a couple of jokes and it really relaxes the situation. Plus you have a fantastic voice.

Brian: OK, When do you get angry with me?

Kevin: Hmm, I guess everything I just said can be reversed as well. I’m sometimes too serious and you’re sometimes too childish. Sometimes you don’t realise just how serious things are.

Brian: Would you say we’re more like brothers or friends?

Kevin: Both. I think. Obviously, we do have our disagreements and we tend to fall out more quickly because we are family. But I guess you always fall out with family quicker than friends because, at the end of the day, you know you’ll always love that person.

Brian: What’s one thing about me that really annoys you?

Kevin: (laughing) Its makes me furious when I say something and you go, totally ironically,"Wow, that sounds really grown-up! You must know a great deal about life – yes. You must be really grown-up!" Grrr! That really does my head in. I do know what you mean, but it makes me want to scream!

Brian: When did you realise you could trust me?

Kevin: Well I’ve always known I can tell you absolutely anything. But now, depending on what the problem is, I know I can go to the other guys as well – you’re all good for talking about different things.

Brian: When we do fight, who normally makes the first move?

Kevin: Usually we don’t even have to talk about it, do we? Especially because we’re constantly together – I always know when you’re having a bad day and vice versa, which is when you tend to fall out more. If it’s a big problem we’ll sit down and talk about it but normally it’s easier to forget it and carry on.
