I am here for Friends

About Me

I lived in Stoke-on-Trent for the first 31 years of my life. I then moved down to Suffolk, England, which is the most gorgeous, wonderful, peaceful place I know. I'm married with 2 children. I love socialising, having a laugh & wine

My Interests

I love socialising when I can. Going to pubs, wine bars. I love singing, reading, writing, 2CV's (Citroen cars), Camping & having a laugh. I'd love to go to more live gigs. Going to the movies & London seeing the sights.

I'd like to meet:

I met Ronan Keating 10 years ago, but I would love to meet him again now. It's more due to the fact that we have both grown up, matured. Have settled down, married & have kids. Talk about how much has changed. I'd also love to meet JK Rowling & Patricia Cornwell, they are both authors I really respect & love their works. I wish I'd had the opportunity to meet John Lennon during the early years of The Beatles. Back to now, I'd love to meet John Barrowman. I loved him when I was younger, he was a presenter on childrens T.V "Live & Kicking". He is a great all round performer. I so want to go & see any stage show that he's in. I'm also a huge fan of "Torchwood", the spin-off series from Doctor Who!, he is amazing in that.

Music:

I am a huge fan of Ronan Keating & Boyzone. I've been a fan since 1995. I also like Lee Mead, Take That, Westlife, Scissor Sisters, KT Tunstall, Will Young, Kelly Clarkson, SugaBabes, Robbie Williams, George Michael, Kylie & Queen. In the past & now I loved Climie Fisher (Simon Climie & Rob Fisher) & 80's pop like Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet, Ultravox, Human League, Adam & The Ants, OMD, Nick Kershaw, Howard Jones, Naked Eyes, Savage Garden plus loads more.
