ABOUT ME

I love to chat, socialise, eat, drink and dance. I'm a people person and love both giving and receiving good hospitality.

PHILOSOPHY

....these days I live my life doing the things I love, with people who's company I enjoy. I've become quite cynical but I understand what is important in life: family, friends, laughter, good food, fun and good conversation. I'm a humanist, internationalist and probably a deist, depends on what book I've read recently! I'm a typical Gemini, whatever that means.
