About Me



I've just moved to London, been here for about ten months now....love it!! Never want to go back to Tennessee!!
The most important man in my life is my dog, Nigel. He's a little prince and is treated as such. He's the closest thing to a child that I ever want to have!!! I detest children....especially babies. They're loud, smelly, and quite often damp as well!!!

You Belong in London
A little old fashioned, and a little modern.
A little traditional, and a little bit punk rock.
A unique woman like you needs a city that offers everything.
No wonder you and London will get along so well. What City Do You Belong In?

My Interests

Turkish Delight, Irn Bru and vodka, watching those really cheesy local 'pro' wrestling shows that are on at 2 in the morning, Pimm's and lemonade, anything plaid, cinnamon Altoids, men who wear parkas and ride vespas, Snakebite and Black, pirates, indie films, musicians, boys with shaggy hair, skinny jeans and Beatle boots!, Earl Grey and whiskey, watching cartoons on mute while listening to death metal (it's highly entertaining...try it!), men in kilts, gin and Dr. Enuf, The History Channel, Guinness and Bailey's...are we seeing a pattern here??!!

My pirate name is: Bloody Anne Bonney Every pirate lives for something different. For some, it's the open sea. For others (the masochists), it's the food. For you, it's definitely the fighting. You can be a little bit unpredictable, but a pirate's life is far from full of certainties, so that fits in pretty well. Arr! Get your own pirate name from piratequiz.com.
