What can I say?......I do my bit to pay the bills and try to live as much as possible. I like the same as everyone else...books, movies, going out, seeing the world. I enjoy the era's between the 1920's to the 1960's -music, lifestyles, fashion etc. I'm open-minded, honest and like a laugh(as long as its not at others expense).  Also like to use retro words like 'dude or 'coolio' -someone has to keep these things alive!

I'm really hoping to find snail mail friends to share interests with, I know that it will be much more exciting than the monthly bills I get at the moment. Please don't be shy and get in touch.

It's best to be honest at the start, dont you think?
Please do not reply if this includes you - romance(I hope you find your special someone soon) , scams, prisoners, money requests (lottery ticket perhaps?) and of the male persuasion.

Apart from the above I can seem a little old school - i like baking and try a little knitting once and a while(once and a while it resembles something). I enjoy visiting new places, countries and love the idea of going off the beaten track and if I had plenty of money I would do it more often! Paris is a place i would visit again and again. Thats one of the reasons why I'm here...to learn about diffrerent cultures. I enjoy going to the pub and having a pint and a chat with mates(if its a cocktail its gotta be a white russian). I also enjoy in no order in particular.... the seaside, tea, wellies, live concerts, magic tricks, bangers and mash with gravy, Jack Vettriano art and common sense(can you enjoy this? Yes).

Gotta say its pretty mixed from NIN, Ladyhawk, Little Boots, Pulp, Cure, Nat King Cole, Bowie, Fear Factory, Blondie, Hard-Fi etc.  I could go on and on. Oh I do like the Pupuni sisters, if you like them that would be pretty cool.

Again too many! The Long engagement, Life of Brian, Nightwatch, Some like it hot...I could carry on and on. I dont like horror and will never be converted - Yes I'm a wimp and proud.

Mad men, Poirot, midsummer murders, CSI, QI, Fraiser, The League of Gentlemen, The thick of it and Arrested development.

Sorry but too many too choose from......to give you an idea. Agatha Christie, Terry Pratchett, Jane Austen, Trudi Canavan. I'm also addicted to my kindle-yep it's taken over my life!
