I am here for Friends

About Me

I like boys who dance like robots. And I love a nice cup of tea. I really like to eat and I love red wine. I like Robbie's bottom best, it's like 2 little puppies rolling around in a sack. I recently discovered an roll of old posters that I used to have on my wall. Amongst the relics I found a Teenage Fanclub 'Radio' poster and a brett and bernard poster where Brett was body painted, but there, in the middle, was the most wonderful thing I have seen in a long time - loads of cuttings of Graham Coxon when Blur were good. Ahhh.
