About Me

Very busy, getting ready for my first Xmas at home in years, looking forward to spending it with my wonderful fiance and my future step-children. Just moved house for the third time in 16 months, very happy to be out of Blackburn, just a shame I still have to work there!

My Interests

Ten pin bowling, LaserQuest, cinema, & playing board games with my fiance and the kids. Meals with friends and family. Farmers markets. Days in the country. Playing pool. Chilling out listening to music. Oriental culture.

I'd like to meet:


People who treat others as individuals, not with prejudice. People who treat other people's boundaries with respect.

adopt your own virtual pet!
I've adopted Placebo the Penguin, because I'm not allowed pets at home, and my freezer is too small for a penguin anyway! And yes, the observant may have noticed that just like me he's changed his name recently by Deed Poll!

If you visit my page, please feed him a fish - but not too many, he's a greedy little penguin.

Music:

Placebo (they were fantastic live!). Green Day. Alanis Morrisette. Bruce Springsteen. Prince. Guns N Roses. Mary Chapin Carpenter. Billy Joel. 80's stuff. Most rock and metal.

Movies:

Interview with the Vampire. Queen of the Damned. The Matrix Trilogy. Equilibrium. The Blade Trilogy. Cruel Intentions. Kissing Jessica Stein. Leon. Kung Fu Hustle. Unleashed. Fight Club. Girl Interupted. My Life. Mrs Parker and the Vicious Circle. Threesome. District 13. And many more, I love movies.

Television:

I watch Hereos, Grey's Anatomy, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, The L Word, Ghost Whisperer, and Saved.
I try to watch CSI, Law & Order:C.I., Huff, Blade, Nip/Tuck, E.R., Q.I., and Never Mind the Buzzcocks when they're on.
Used to watch Friends, Buffy, Angel, Charmed, West Wing, Sex & the City, and thirtysomething, have some on boxset.

Books:

Dark Hunter series. Harry Potter (read them back-to-back in about a month this summer, thanks Col & Karen for Half Blood Prince). The L Shaped Room. Some "chick lit". Travel guides. Calvin & Hobbes. Dilbert. Bill Hicks biography "Love all the People".

Heroes:

I have people I respect, for their honour, loyalty, honesty, and attitude to life, and as you don't know them there's no point listing them. They know who they are.
