Was expelled from boarding school as a boy for changing the organ pipes
around in the school chapel during the Christmas period. He was lonely
and unhappy because his parents were in Singapore and he couldn't make
the journey to his grandmother's house in Llanelli; because it was too
expensive. When they attempted to play the organ he described the sound
like "Stevie Wonder going mental.".
As "Fat Les", composed the unofficial England Soccer World Cup 1998
Song "Vindaloo".
Although he was "Fat Les" in the England World Cup song "Vindaloo" and
also in other English patriotic music videos, he is in fact Welsh, as
is his brother Kevin. They were both born in Swansea.
