I am here for Friends

About Me

Burning with love (tho freezing cold!) but determined not to make a 'fuel' of myself...! I am a happy accident and a chaotic mismatch of punk, goth, rock chick and geek girl. Love painting, drawing, writing, reading, drinking, partying and being proved wrong to great effect. I'm bright, fun and a loyal friend, with scrawly handwriting and a winning smile.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Difficult bitches like myself - of either sex! One thing I really miss from my younger days is lounging around friends' bedrooms, having a laugh, chatting idly about bands and throwing pillows - if you'd like to recreate that then I'm your woman! : P Please remember, you're no better than me, and I'm no better than I should be! Bullies, Bigots, this profile is not for you - behave or begone! Other than that, anything goes...Hookers, Harlots, Cross dressers, Drag queens, Mods, Rockers, Punks, Rude boys/gals, New Romantics, Grebos, Crusties, Goths, Ravers, Indie Kids, Psychobillies or even regular Jos and Joannes this way! Don't request an add if you don't fancy a chat...you'll find yourself gone from here before you can say 'delete'! PS Fish out that furtive pack of B&H, stick the kettle on, talk absolute crap with me til dawn and then make me stacks of marmite on toast and I'm yours forever!

Music:

New Bands on Myspace...I wish you all the best of luck but please be aware my PC speakers are kaput and fucked! I am not being rude in denying your friend requests, but even if I added you I wouldn't be able to listen to your tunes!!! My tastes are wide and varied, as you'll see below...

Television:

Mainly comedies - Phoenix Nights, Max and Paddy's Road To Nowhere, Absolutely Fabulous, Jam and Jerusalem, The Young Ones, Monty Python's Flying Circus, Bottom, Vic & Bob, Little Britain, Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps, The Office. Other stuff like Shameless, Waterloo Road and The Street. I have a minor soap weekness too - Eastenders and Corra being the only to I will own up to! Retro shows include Tiswas, Charlie's Angels, Cagney and Lacey, Knight Rider, The A Team...the list groweth longer!

Books:

Authors: Martha O'Connor, Chrissie Glazebrook, Meera Syal, Jean Rhys, Irvine Welsh, Niall Jenkins, Doug Coupland, Howard Marks, Roddy Doyle, Stephen King, Shaun Hutson

Heroes:

Heros: John Peel, DJ and all purpose legend; Siobhan Fahey - musician and hectic mad bird, plus the inspiration for my black eyeliner obsession which has spanned 17 years! Chrissie Glazebrook - Author, Toyah Wilcox, Ian Dury...The Blockheads' vox, actor, legendary piss artist and all round top bloke, Joe Strummer....lead singer of The Clash.
