I am here for Friends

About Me

"If it wasn't for Pro Evo & Champ Manager i'd be a Producer, Musician, Film-Maker, Scriptwriter & Novelist by now"... I do still harbour ambitions to be at least one of those things, eventually, one day, when i leave school, cos i do think i've got a creative bone somewhere in my body, it's just hard to find it amongst all the lazy bones. I do a couple of nights DJing in Fat Cats, Hanley, an indie night on a Monday & an anything goes (Disco / Funk / Soul / Hip-Hop / House) night on a Saturday & have been in the same part-time 'stop-gap' admin job for nearly 5 years haha! I graduated from Staffs Uni in '05, scraping a 2:1 in Media & Cultural studies but i wish i'd done sumat more useful now, although to be honest whatever i'd done i'd be wishing i'd done sumat else instead!

My Interests

Music, Football (season ticket holder at The Villa), going out, playing with Becky's face i.e irritating her, spending money that i havent got on obscure disco records that i'll probably never play, & away games (i know that constitutes as football, but still, they're more fun). Oh and ranting!!!

I'd like to meet:
