I like listening to music, watching (loads of) films and televsion, reading, watching football - i support Newcastle United - (i cannot play for shite, like - mind you, neither can they) I also enjoy writing (mainly scripts, short stories and poems) and karaoke, even though i am as good at singing as i am writing this sort of thing.
People i can trust and anyone who can laugh at themselves.
