I am here for Friends

About Me

Well, 2007 arrives and i figured a fresh 'about me'section would be fitting!!! (Spiffing would be the word if you where in the know!). The name is Beckie, but i come with a variety of puesodyms (lousy spelling), which are available on request from Miss Amy Berridge.I live in the 'north country', and frickin love it always have and always will. Northern girl at heart. Having crossed the Yorkshire border I'm now living at Lancaster (the uni to be exact). I've made some amazing friends, whom are all well aware of who they are!! At the same time i haven't forgotten my three rocks back in Hull (Amy, Jen and Adam), and everyone else whom i frequently bump into at Welly and Attic & Pozition on the occassions that i'm back.Interests are largely taken up by music, even though i can't play a bloody instrument or sing to save my bloody life. Though for a small fee me and Amy can do a cracking cover of 'House of the Rising Sun'. I also enjoy a bit of 'penguin dancing' and lately 'window washing' on a regular basis. I have also been described as something of a ditz!div style="z-index:5; background-color:

Television:

Daytime T.V., the sick fascination that is Big Brother (i tried so hard this year not to become addicted). ER,Dr Who (but the last few episodes have been crap), Lost when i understand it, and the OC. I did really like the BBC adaptations of Shakespeare, particularly Taming the Shrew.

Books:

Complete bookworm but don't pay attention to the authors, favourites include 1984, Jane Austen, the Bronte sisters, D.H.Lawrence, Leo Tolstoy, Sebastien Faulkener (Birdsong), James Herriot, dystopian novels are great for the getting the mind going, so always up for them

Heroes:
