My interests are varied and many. I can only give you a small insight as to what interests me by what I have on my page. I like all things dark and gothic, art especially. I love tattoo's and having them done, and the same goes for piercings too. I have 5 tattoo's at present and plan more for the future.
I'm a massive Rammstein fan. I was incredibly lucky to see them twice last year. I've even taken my 60 year old mother to see them and she had a blast. She's now a confirmed Rammstein fan.
I believe music is a very powerful medium. It can stir such powerful emotions in me at times. The right songs can lift me up and make me feel such elation and others can bring out such sadness in me and I find that the right collection of musical notes, voices, instruments can do this to me extremely fascinating. I've recently been told that one aspect of this is the heart melting chord change, and it does melt the heart. Rammstein's version of the Depeche Mode song, Stripped, does this to me every time I hear it. Other songs can bring me out in goose bumps and to promote such a physical reaction like that just from sounds is amazing. Pink Floyd is another band that is able to do physical and emotional things to me with their music. Mostly they inspire memories. One song in particular inspires such sadness but at the same time, hope. It's a song off the Division Bell album and it's called Coming Back to Life. I was listening to this whilst I was in hospital with kidney failure. I didn't know if I'd live or die, or if I'd have a life restricted because of dialysis or if I even needed a transplant. Luckily my kidney function returned to normal and I felt like I had 'Come back to life'. Ever since, I can't listen to that song without crying.
Pitch Black, The Chronicles of Riddick, Fifth Element, Meet Joe Black, City of Angels, Gladiator, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, The Matrix (first one only), The X Men Trilogy, Night Watch, Day Watch and there's probably more which I will add when I remember them.

About me: Hard working, fun loving sort of person. Love my friends and family and would do anything for them. Nuts about Rammstein but like other kinds of music as well. I'm a bit of a dippy hippy and believe in free love and fairies and dragons and all that sort of stuff but also love having a mosh in a decent rock club. I'm a Wiccan. I believe in nature and the power of nature more than a specific god or gods.
I absolutely love my job. After having several well paid but highly stressful jobs, I took a pay cut and went to work for Lush. I haven't looked back since. I enjoy it immensely and have lots of fun working there. Plus the ethics of the company are like my own and they treat their workers like people rather than commodities.
I have a thing about pictures of cats with funny captions at the minute. Here are a few as an example
I'll have a chat wi the lads tomorrow about maybe increasing the range of sizes...we're just treatding carefully in the 'sizes/colours' thing,...we dont want to be washing the Berlingo with 100 Green Skinny extra small t shirts that we've not been able to sell ;0)
