  • Interests

    I love shopping which is also part of my job .
    I love television CSI – NCIS – The Good Wife.

    I also love entertaining and reading.

I’m a fake blonde from Manchester (North of England) with a penchant for leopard print ( I think this is due to my alter ego Bet Lynch from Coronation Street having a wardrobe full.) I live in London near Battersea Park .....which is an oasis of calm in the City. I love City life and especially London with all its history and amazing architecture and the people who live besides.

I'm a retail anorak which means I'm obsessed with any form of fashion retailing or general retailing.

I’ve got a great set of girlfriends who are all very strong women and a lovely life- they have all become strong due to their life and what they have been through and that's why we love each other.

I love this site but sadly I seem to on at the end of my day as your all just starting your day...

So I now seem to be staying up late.....but who cares I’ve made lots of new friends and the warmth and the strength I have found has been amazing .........

    • Hi UK Girl, thanks so much for the welcome message, well, in Dec 2012. Sorry for the late reply as I was very tied up with my kids’ school matters and haven’t had the time for myself. Would be glad to hear from you again! Gee, how did you manage to get 55 thousand community points?
