I am here for Friends

About Me

Recently emigrated to Canada but lived in Oxfordshire, England for 38 years. Married to Colin with 2 sons Jake n Toby. Music's my life - 77's punk scene is what made me what I am today being a life-long Clash fan. When the scene died down I got into rock n metal but deep down I'm still that punk girl at heart & the sounds are very much alive in our house! Also support Arsenal F.C.
