It is better to have loved and...kept, actually (I should know)

About Me

I am most definitely me. I couldn't be anyone else even if you paid me. After all, no amount of money could buy this level of stupidity.Anyway, I like music, poetry/messing about with words, thinking.My favourite quote is "if cleanliness is next to godliness then these people must be atheists" (my own).Exhibitionists need not apply.Vanity strictly prohibited.Selfishness is the root of all evil - not money.I have this inexplicable ability to waffle on and on about things. I think it stems from spending years working for solicitors, particularly in Conveyancing and Probate - yawn!..This profile was edited with MySpace Profile Editor MySpace Profile EditorI found my rollover effect at pYzam.com , They're awesome!

Books:

Forget it, my four year old doesn't shut up. Concentrate is a word you find on the side of some juice bottle/carton, nothing more.

Heroes:

My Granny. She was a bloody strong, brave lady. She went through stuff many couldn't endure. RIP granny, the world will be a worse place without you xxxAny parent who is brave enough to go against the grain and teach their child proper morals and values.Anyone who is not afraid to be different and follow their heart rather than following the crowd, and to express their opinions and ideas without fear of repercussions.
