About Me

MyGen Profile GeneratorREVISED......I am still (a) Burke, aka Burkatron aka 'the original mad apprentice'. Bit of a clown, gotta learn to listen to people and grow (shut) up. Amazingly still at Land Rover/Jaguar only trying to keep my head down, do my work and complete my degree instead of drinking tea!!! Work is good, I moan more than anybody, but it's actually alright. WORK HARD PLAY HARDER. Live for spending valuable time with me beloved family and friends, other than that Im your average geezer. FLATLINE need a mention - men with a lot of drive and determination and good friends, special mention to all people involved.Back to me though, after all it is 'MY'space... I love life, gotta learn to brighten (grow) up!! Everybody that knows me will admit 2 things, FOOTBALL (Birmingham City is my religion, St Andrews my chruch) MUSIC (Specially any talented UK Urban artsits - Streets, Plan B, etc). Yeah I like a lot of urban stuff, do not care if you approve or not, NUFF SAID. Bless to all people who pass through. Shouts to JON & HARRY, me main man Baker, Karlos, Joel, Zach, Twins, Lloydy, Skinner and all THE BEATS, Bruza, Flitch, Box, Wardy, Jason 'FACKING' Wilson & Lee 'FACKING' Roberts, my Brothers from school, including Johnny Boy and Mr McD, everybody doing their thing in my area, Shep, Simon & Jade, Jess, the other Jess, Tesco's Ginger Ninja, Every1 keeping right on till the End.
