About Me

My name is Rebecca Tamsin Ballantyne Mills. Seriously! I am a quarter of the band 'Waking The Witch'. I don't do much solo stuff anymore, but the music on here is what I would do on my ownio. I much prefer playing with my Weehatches, it's so much more fun. I have been performing since I was 16 and writing for all that time too. I am completely doing this wrong aren't I? I will start again...Becky first started performing at the age of 16 to huge audiences in Harrogate. She was declared 'a massive talent' by the time she was 17 and everybody loved her. She became friends with Sting, and it was he himself who decided that Harrogate should erect a large bronze statue of her image in the town centre. In spring, the children dance around it and sing Becky Mills songs in her honour. The same thing happens in her home town of Pickering, but the statue is made of wood and has since shed its nose. I am often told...I mean, she is often told that had she not become a pop/rock/folk star then U2 would probably be more well-known today. She does tell everybody to buy their records though to help push them more in to the public eye and take a bit of the attention from herself. She is beautiful, kind, fabulous and saintly. Everybody wishes they were her, in fact, but they can't be because she is 'Rebecca Tamsin Ballantyne Mills of the clan Ballantyne and there can be only one'. This was written by a third person as Rebecca ,being too abashed by the praise being heaped upon her, had to leave the room. God I love her. Sigh. (third person)

Bridget Jones

SO here I am, watching Bridget Jones and drinking wine on my own. It doesn't get much sadder than that does it? Well, actually maybe I enjoy wallowing in self pity. Maybe I like being on my own anyway...
