Something Takes A Part Of Me

About Me

Hello & welcome to my world. Well, in case you hadn't guessed I'm into metal in a big way. I'm a health care assistant which means that I end up working some pretty crappy hours, but it pays the bills (& for my precious Download ticket, video games etc). I'm also a bit of a geek, if it's shinny techie & gadgety, chances are I'll love it.
http://www.myheritage.comWhen I not stuck at work, I like Playstation 3 & am currently addicted to Oblivion, Nintendo DS (playing Pokemon atm) & Wii (bowling having had a few beers is always good for a laugh), my guitars (even though I'm not very good), watching films, having a laugh with my mates, reading, body boarding, camping, smurfing the net & of course listening to metal & rock.If you want to know more, just ask.
