No more Mr Nice Guy...

About Me

Come talk to me and find out! I've been home for a whole bloody year since spending 11 months abroad (1 month in the US, 7 months in New Zealand and 3 months in Australia. Oh, and a day in Hong Kong). I'm still trying to come to terms with the fact I can no longer sit by the beach doing nothing all day everyday. Quite sad really. Feel like I left part of me behind in NZ, but I will go back to find it someday. Beyond that, I support the mighty Spurs, love going out with my mates and meeting new people. So roll up, roll up, come one, come all. Oh just say hello for god's sake!

My Interests

Music (live and recorded), films, driving/cars, going out with friends, travelling/visiting new places and photography:

CLICKY FOR PICCY'S

Sad. Happy.

So today I had a typical Wednesday but had a half day, so left at 1230 and headed home. Gave my car a very quick wash and awaited the arrival of my parents. Shortly after they did, my Dad and I headed...
