About Me

Hello and welcome to my inner sanctum. Over worked and under paid admin monkey here. I love the music, the film, book and Sequential Art.In my natural habit I can usually be found sleeping.I'm not on here hardly as much as I used to be, there's too much clutter on here. I prefer Facebook, even though that too is slowly spiralling out of contol.
