About Me

Alreeet, well you all know me as one or more of Darren, Dazza, Stretchy, or HP. Not that I’m particularly bothered; you can call me Percy, Petunia, or even Petal if it makes you happy.
Not sure what the point of this section is but I'll humour it for now... I’m predominantly a friendly and approachable person who will put his friends before anything else, even if it means going out of my way to help them. Can't fault 'em though my mates are spot on! I'd consider myself to have a very placid temperament and be very patient, even if at times my patience gets pushed. No matter though, I'll always try to show some compassion.
Would like to think I’d be regarded as a reasonably intelligent person who's able to engage in an intellectual debate. Unfortunately, I am extremely opinionated which at times can seem (incorrectly) belligerent. Oh and I’m not a ‘music snob’ though despite what some might say haha
Anyway, I’ve had enough of writing about myself it’s balls. If you want to know anything feel free to ask. Adiós…

I like a variety of films from comedy to action, but like films with twists or developing plots that cause you to think.... The Departed, Blood Diamond, Beautiful Mind, Usual Suspects, Reservoir Dogs, Donnie Darko, Batman Begins, Layer Cake, Snatch, Full Metal Jacket, Anchorman, Star Wars, and Lord of the Rings....

Don't have a lot of time to read these days, did more so in the past. Last few reads have been by John Grisham, Dan Brown, and Jeremy Clarkson.

Heroes:

Don't really have hero's, just admiration for people who have/had a positive influence on the World, or, shown individual brilliance in their field
