Frank is one of Scott's oldest friends - they met at NCT antenatal classes before they were born, and they (and their respective parents) have been firm friends since. Frank is half Welsh and half Irish, and has a soft toy fetish and a very loud voice, both of which he is demonstrating in this photo.

Calum is six months older than Scott and so he is Scott's hero, at least he would be if he wasn't a St Johnstone fan (albeit involuntarily). Calum got some goldfish for his second birthday, and also likes ball games and fire engines. This photo was taken in the playground of the Manley Park Play Centre, where Scott and Calum (and their mums) met.

Scott has known Thomas since they were a few months old, and since Thomas has one of the few (other) full-time mums in Chorlton they see quite a lot of each other. Thomas has a younger brother called Baby James, who was born in April 2001. Thomas's favourite things include splashing in water, the Teletubbies, and food.
