About Me

"May the wind always be at your back and the sun upon your face. And may the wings of destiny carry you aloft to dance with the stars."
Im P. I live in Wigan, well just outside it in Standish. Im a web developer and I work in Manchester (near the Appollo) in Ardwick for a web design agency. I also do some freelance work when i get the time. I love music and am into all kinds of different types (pop, rock, indie, dance, whatever you want to call it - if its good music, its good music!) I like the kind of music that really moves you. Neil Young is amazing at doing this - some of his work is f'n AMAZING - "like a hurricane" is probably my favourite track. My favourite band is probably The Calling ( - "stigimitized" and "could it be any harder (fade away)" are two of the best songs I've ever heard) and Kings of Leon are ace (their new album is amazing!!!) saw them a few weeks ago in Lincoln ,then again in blackpool - got to meet the band at the aftershow party - AMAZING band!, Kasabian (top live band!), Razorlight, Bob Dylan, Kasabian, Rolling Stones, Foo Fighters, Rod Stewart (is da man), The Jam, The Killers, Snow Patrol, and loads more that I can't think of right now - check out music interests below!!! I play the guitar ( i have an acoustic and electric). Ive been doing lessons for a few months and getting pretty good! Would like to join a band some day. I also got to grade 3 at piano when i was younger so im not bad at that either. I'm also a wigan latics fan and go watching them at the jjb occasionally! Prefer to watch them on TV tho, its a bit cold in the jjb during the winter! Big shout out to my ace girlfriend suzi and to my mates the green brothers who are absolute legends (check them out in my top 8 friends), john (my bro), di siiiiz (di geez), dom, kammy, feltham, elsy "potato tits", and beej (although he now prefers to hang around with his mum and dads friends than get shitted with the boys - only joking mate!!), and all the other friends that I hardly see anymore (ric, harper, damien, scott... xxx). I love Canada, I have been there twice now, and its an amazing place - so friendly and untouched. If you've not been you should go. We stayed in Caledonia in Hamilton and stayed with an amazing family (big shout out to the Kras household!) Defiantely want to go back someday!
