About Me

My name's Jamie, it's important to get that out of the way. My real name is James, but I don't really like this name. It is a bit too regal in demeanour for somebody as unregal as myself. It's like calling yourself "Cliff" and not being a jaded, christian pop singer. Or Clint and being a bed wetter, just doesn't happenI like the simple things in life, photography- alright the processes and philosophy behind this aren't that simple, my mates- now they ARE simple, alcohol and dancing around to songs in a manner thats more suited to a disco in a water closet.I'm simple. I try not to complain. I try to always look on the brightside of things and I try to do the right thing by the people I meet. No I'm not Jesus, just a bloke with a concience.Now it's time to leave on something witty and entertaining."My foot (the left one) looks like George Washington cannibalistically developed"....

.. You scored as Captain Jack Sparrow. Roguish,quick-witted, and incredibly lucky, Jack Sparrow is a pirate who sometimes ends up being a hero, against his better judgement. Captain Jack looks out for #1, but he can be counted on (usually) to do the right thing. He has an incredibly persuasive tongue, a mind that borders on genius or insanity, and an incredible talent for getting into trouble and getting out of it. Maybe its brains, maybe its genius, or maybe its just plain luck. Or maybe a mixture of all three.
