About Me

Just turned 29. I don't like it. Not one bit. I'm sure that youth was meant to stick around a bit longer that it has. It's a cruel, cruel world indeed.I've been living in London for the past 7 years and have a love/hate relationship with the place. Have some great friends and love to spend my time with them doing pretty much anything. Can't beat good company, conversation, cards and wine! (See, a young person would never talk like this!)Read a quote by the presenter Alex Zane today that sums up one of my pet hates perfectly:"I can't stand it when people stop dead on the pavement. A pavement is a pedestrian motorway and people are fleshier versions of cars. It's pure self-involvement, done by the same people who don't listen in conversations, but just wait for you to deliver the hook for what they want to say."If you want to know anything else then please feel free to drop me a line.

How the other half live

I spent most of yesterday on board one of Alan Sugars private planes! Not as exciting as it sounds though. We never left the ground and I wasn't being wined and dined either. It was just for a pho...
