Bios, part 1

It's been quite a while gents, and I've completed enough of the bios that I won't look like a complete idiot by starting to put them up. Numerical ordered, so if you reside at the end they're going to take a little bit more time for me to get them up.
Special thanks to Cozza for creating mine.
Enjoy
