Yosh

Yes I do have a bent nose and a scarred lip, Get the Fuck over it.

About Me

My name is Joshua Roberts.
There is no such thing as fate.
Life is exactly what you make it.
Religion is a lie.
But think what you want, I won't judge you on it.
I entertain some people.
Others think I'm a twat.
Sometimes a beer and a mate can utterly complete my life.
Get to know me.
I dare you.

My Interests

I am interested in Oasis.
I am interested in films.
I am interested in life... And living it.
If you wish to find me then I would suggest checking the following places:
1: My house. I may be here, working, playing games, myspacing or watching films.
2: Birmingham City Center. I spend hours and hours here, looking for a job, drinking coffee, meeting friends, whatever there is to do.
3: Stratford college / town: As I spend the duration of my week here, you're likely to find me dossing around with some college friends, or working hard of course.
If I'm not in these places, doing that stuff... You can probably get pretty good odds on me being curled up in bed, fast asleep. =)
So that's it, not complicated, I'll always be knockin' around somewhere.
Wherever that may be... Perhaps you will join me there.

Heroes:

On the 12th of February 2008 - me, Mattick and Georgia stumbled drunkenly out of the Jug of Ale.
Georgia burst into song, as we walked down the almost deserted road she sang: "Someday you will find me, caught beneath a landslide..." Then I sang: "In a champagne supernova..."
Before she could open her mouth again an old man walking on the other side of the road we hadn't noticed loudly proclaimed "A champagne supernova in the sky!"
This man is truly my hero.
