I do have a couple of 'slight' connection to politics I suppose you could say . To be honest it doesn't really interest me. I much prefer Football, Music and travelling.
Anyway I would make a terrible politician.. I like to be everyone's friend and I am too sympathetic and smile too much. Politicians always look grim to me. (I will get abused for that comment no doubt).
Good to see a lot of Rovers Fans on here.. No doubt if your a Rovers fan you will have seen me at some point at Ewood or Away.

On the other side of things a girl has just moved to round the corner to me,i only saw her on the bus n chatted to her once n i ended up inviting her round for a brew to 'meet the neighbours'....i forgot to tell her my name though-must of thought i was a reet nutter

Thanks, that's a lovely compliment. I lived down South for three years (Swindon) I hated it. Hated is a bit strong but I sort of learned to live with their ways if that makes sense. Don't think they could understand my accent Lol.
It's always nice to meet new people. Especially interesting one's.

Well Derekgas.. I never had a problem with mine .. All new builds are just like shells really. The majority of them are just thrown up and poorly/cheaply built. I prefer traditional houses myself. I love the whole wood beams in the roof effect and traditional features. Each to their own I guess though

You are right, can't beat the traditional houses, like the one you are in now, if you have been lucky enough to buy one with plenty of the original ornate features, you have done well, too many been destroyed by unsympathetic renovation.

Well it's my partners house originally but I have moved in so now it is sort of ours but his if we split up if that makes sense Lol. Not my personal choice mind you but then again if you don't try the unexpected then you never know. Just can't wait to 'do it up'.
