Greetings one and all.

About Me

Myspace Layouts - Myspace Editor


Hello to you all. Ta for stopping by. My name is Ben, I'm 27 and I live in Nottingham but I don't own a gun.
I like music, parties, dancing, drinking, holidays, playing pool, eating out, football - well, I'm a Forest fan, so sort of! I'm a bit of a music freak, all Drum'n'Bass these days but I grew up with much varied and random rock/mainstream tastes. I like to make my own tunes too. See "Begrimed" in my friends list, still under construction.
I dislike ignorance, arrogance, bad attitudes, idiots.

My Interests

Music, travelling, people, parties, pubs, pool, driving, dancing, drinking, football, fun, f*%king. :-) In no particular order!

I'd like to meet:


What the fuck is this bit for?

Movies:

Films aren't a massive part of my life any more, I like comedy, drama, horror, English films, 80s films, even kids films. As long as it's entertaining. Not so keen on action or fantasy films. Some of my faves include; Big Lebowski, Trainspotting, Dazed and Confused, Bad Santa, Psycho, Breakfast Club, High Fidelity, This is Spinal Tap, Shrek, Shallow Grave, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, American Beauty, Stand By Me etc.

Television:

Peep Show, MOTD, Simpsons, Corrie(?), The Office, Extras, Father Ted, Curb Your Enthusiasm, South Park, Only Fools & Horses, Young Ones, Top Gear.

Books:

Hmmmm, does The Sun count?? Knowledge magazine?? I guess not. In that case, the Adrian Mole series? Some Auto-Biographies? I'm not a mega frequent reader.

Heroes:

Too many to mention, and all for different reasons. I'll have a think and compile a list.
