Hello
hmmmmmm what to write about me as an intro.....damn its make or break time. First impressions are so vital. Oooooo the pressure.
I'm living in South Wales but originate from Essex (No I don't own White stillettos and No I'm not an Essex girl!). I don't bite, I do pinch, I love chocolate and I one day plan on learning lots of stuff I can't do yet.
Hobbies:- include juggling, balls
and clubs , Diablo, poi, doodling, music, hating housework (dust is natures way of showing what the burglars have stolen), making things, pulling things to bits (mainly to see how they work) , embarrassing my nieces and nephews (great fun hobbie that all aunties should take up), hugging trees and talking to bees (watch out for the squirrels......they ARE out to get you!)
Ambitions:- Never to grow up. Learn how to burn things safely
To that ends learning how to poi without stunning myself, blacking my eye or turning myself into a human torch. Learn to play more than one tune on the guitar. Rule the World. Learn to Surf. Conquer my fear of heights. Travel the world in a van with a man named Bob ("why Bob?" you ask...well why not Bob? I'm sure there are loads of nice men called Bob out there! Simons and Johns need not apply).
Boring stuff:- work in sales to pay the bills.

Oooooooo so you can see it? This is all very odd. I tried changing my avatar and it didn't seem to me to work. The old one kept coming back. I was doing this on the firefox browser. I logged in on the IE and the new one was there. On the Firefox its still the old one no matter how many times I delete cookies and whatnot..... its all very odd. I think the avatar you can see is a pic of Jeff Buckley but I'm not sure I tried loads of them and on Firefox all I still see is the skully head.

I just signed in on IE and tried to get rid of Jeff and put in another avatar..... it won't let me. I'm stuck with Jeff Buckley on IE and Skully on Firefox! HoP just doesn't seem to like me.

I have an avatar now? oh this thing shows me no picture and won't let me upload one....... its gone all freaky on me. I wish I'd never fiddled and left it alone! Doh! Stupid girl!
[edit]
I just uploaded another pic and on firefox the old one of skully came back but on IE I see the new one of fire pixies...... what is going on?? I'll never be sure now which Avatar people can see beside my name. It seems to depend on which browser you use!

Thanks Strugz
I think I'll just leave it alone now. Whatever you are seeing now is what you are stuck with. As I use Firefox to browse I'm stuck with Skully in flames. IE users should have a nicer fire pixies picture (I think)

It just goes to show Dunc..... maybe they shouldn't give me days off work. I have too much time to faff about with and it leads me to fiddle with stuff and balls things up!

After having a chat with Bird last night and thinking about it all day and doing a little bit of a search on the net I have come to HoP to ask you good/odd/down right weird people if you have ever heard of 'Chocolate therapy'?
Its a long and odd but not all that interesting reason we were talking about it. The therapy we dreamed up didn't involve eating chocolate so much as wearing it....... Yes I'm aware I'm not making much sense. Sorry!

yeah, you'd need to clear your browser cache (which should happen when you restart your browser anyhoo)
otherwise it thinks:
etc, etc...
erm, anyway...
i just popped in here cos i saw your new gallery pics. They kick ass, as usual. Though your slug has no eyestalks. He seemed more like a grub or larvae to me.
i noticed the familiar rabbit putting in another appearance too. Why is that goddam rabbit so familiar?
i also notice you still have no pictures of monkeys. What is the reason for this vicious monkey prejudice? Are you afraid of the monkey? Are you a monkey hater?
so i'm going on hunger strike until you draw a picture of a monkey.
or until i get hungry. Whichever comes first.

ooh, i know what skullys avatar looks like! i remember it reeeeally well. It was all skull like and stuff. Like this! Look! i remember stuff by storing it in loads of little switches on a teeny thin bit of silicon. Do you know what silicon is? i don't, i'm a web browser with little or no knowledge of the world outside. Hey! you've got mail! Do you wanna see some porn?

hmm, "monkies" are very small monks, a subject you haven't previously expressed any interest in, Jon.
surely, you mean "munkees"?

Simian I have no fear of monkeys and I don't hate them. When I draw them they usually come out looking odd......Now I'll have to prove that I suppose.
