About Me

MyGen Profile GeneratorNow, where do I begin? Well, I'm a graduate trainee accountant, working in the small town of Limavady which is some 15 miles from my home town of Derry/Londonderry. When this job of mine, and revising for my professional exams, isn't keeping me so busy, I concentrate on my interests.

My Interests

Watching films, singing, going to music festivals, trying (vainly) to find time for holidays abroad, reading the occasional book (be it factual or fiction) and hanging around with family and friends. I'm also a very keen follower of football.

I'd like to meet:

Well, there are a few names I can think of, now...Bill Clinton, Stuart Murdoch, Gemma Hayes, Kate Winslet, Neil Hannon (hang on, I've already met that person - lol), Cara Dillon (ditto - lol).

Find me on

Books:

No particular preference, though I grew up reading Roald Dahl, some Shakespeare (particularly A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Merchant Of Venice) and have recently enjoyed some of Nick Hornby's books, such as High Fidelity and About A Boy. I also enjoy reading autobiographies. And I'm not ashamed to admit that I've read all of the Harry Potter books either...

Heroes:

None that I can think of off the top of my head...

South of the border...

A day on the town

So, I had quite a good day off. Went to town for the first time in a while. Being in Limavady a lot of the time, I don't get to see Derry these days as much as I'd like. So you can imagine my surprise...
