I know I'm a girl... hahaha... but I love football and speedway. My favourite football team are Swindon Town... hahaha well, it really should be because that's my hometown but as you've probably already seen, my favourite team are Spurs and I've supported them since I was 12.
MICHAEL DAWSON... Spurs new sponsors, Mansion, red again!
I'd also like to give a special mention to a player that I enjoyed watching back in the 80's, Davie Cooper. I liked him that much that I named my cat after him and not even Glenn Hoddle had that honour! The late, great Davie Cooper
Greatly influenced by my Dad, I love watching Speedway. I'm unfortunately unable to see any Live Speedway because I live so far away from any tracks but I love to watch all the meetings they show on Sky.
Once a year I go down to the British Grand Prix in Cardiff and this year was especially sweet because my favourite rider, Jason Crump, won and is currently leading the World Individual Speedway Rider Championship and unless something drastic happens... touch wood not... he'll be World Champion for the 2nd time, this year. EDIT: Jason Crump, is 2006 World Speedway Champion JASON CRUMP AND PIT CREW
In the last few years I've become at expert at wandering aimlessly through various Towns in Britain... I love wandering aimlessly! :oD When not wandering aimlessly I've often sat in George Square on a nice summers day, watching the World go by. One of my favourite places to visit is Ward Park, in Bangor. It's lovely just to sit and feed/watch the ducks and geese :o)

Movies
My favourite actor is Steven Mackintosh.. ......
I enjoy mostly comedy films, probably because there usually aren't many sad moments in them. I'd start crying watching paint dry! hahaha I hate horrors because they terrify me! :oD
Television
I love the old comedies... Rising Damp, Steptoe and Son e.t.c. I enjoy Shameless and really enjoyed Six Feet Under when it was on. I usually watch Neighbours during my lunch hour and sometimes... if I'm not on here... Hollyoaks and Emmerdale. I hate Question Time but I really enjoy watching This Week, the politics programme that comes after QT... I find myself strangely drawn to Michael Portillo! Yes, I know, I'm worried too! :oD hahaha
I also watch the football shows and the Speedway Meetings on Sky :o)
Awww, I nearly forgot to give a mention to Monkey. I know it's exceptionally naff but that's what I love about it...
I've really enjoyed Life On Mars
Books
I spend so much time .. that I leave myself next to no time for reading. I got The Encylopedia of True Crime for Christmas and I still haven't made it past the B section... EDIT: I'm very pleased to announce that since that last statement was made, I've actually made it up to the D section! Well, I typed that months ago and I'm still no farther forward. For Christmas I got The Spurs Miscellany... the ultimate book of Tottenham trivia and unsurprisingly, I managed to finish that in a night! hahaha:oD
Young William seems to think that this pic might have some correlation (yes, I have words!) to your life as a (and I'm quoting William here) "dirty stopout". Can't imagine...
Hello Shazz, thank you for the birthday wishes.Did you know that Fergie is exactly 10 years older than me to the day? When I say Fergie I mean the Duchess of York and not that bird who sings with the Black Eyed peas. Although I wish I was 10 years younger than her....errr x
Hi Shazzy I hope that you're well. I too really defected to Facebook. I shall go on there in a moment to try & find you. What are you up to this weekend? I'm still following the Town around the country, so I'm off to Southend later. I shouldn't really talk about football at the moment, seeing as we're both currently struggling! Have you been to Swindon lately? Take care, have a great weekend & I look forward to trying to find you on Facebook. xxx ;-)
