About Me

Hmmmm, what to say....I'm ever so slightly obsessed with music. Spend far too much on CDs and Vinyl in an attempt to increase my already ridiculously large collection. I'll go to any gig within reasonable distance, which means I've seen some absolute shockers (bands that I dare not name) as well as some awesome ones too (too many to name). I always have my headphones or stereo on. Failing that, pretending to do work whilst watching a film my best mate has never heard of. I love spending time with my mates and I'm slightly partial to the odd Jack Daniels!
I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !

Television:

Mildly obsessed with the OC (Seth, mmmm) and Nip/Tuck. Laugh hysterically at Family Guy (it's got me through many a boring night) and Hollyoaks when I get chance to watch it.

Books:

'Spose considering the career change this should be a long list, but it's not. Love anything that isn't straight forward and takes a bit of getting your head around (Chuck Palahniuk & Michel Houellebecq). If anyone's interested you should read Jeff Noon's 'Pixel Juice'. Just reading 'The Wasp Factory' by Iain Banks...bit sick and twisted, but can't put it down! Really getting into kids books at the moment (occupational hazard) and loving Alan Gibbons and William Nicholson, but you can't forget good ol' Mr Potter - oh how I cried when Dumbledore bit the dust and SNAPE CAN'T BE A BADDIE!!!!!!!

Heroes:

My nan - I miss her soooooooooooooooooooooooooo much!!!!!
