CURRENT MISSION

To itch that spot in the middle of my back without help from another object, inanimate or otherwise.

ABOUT ME

Born in NZ ... raised there. Moved to the UK last year ... didn't care for London. Got on the next plane that left which happened to be on its way to Belfast. Have been here for over a year and I'm a bit smitten with it.

PHILOSOPHY

You are the things you love, not what loves you.
