For my 100th review I have decided to let on to you all a little bit about me and thought 100 questions would be apt. So here it goes.

Nightmare on Elm Street are a few.
7. Your favourite song...?
Man in the Mirror - Michael Jackson
8. Where is your favourite place to be?
I love being at my parents place in France. Its a farm house
they have had for 6 years, bought in a dilapidated state and it is
amazing to see how much of a difference they have made to it,
with their own hands. It is wonderful.
And there was a great Taverna I once went to in Zakynthos in
2006, I would like to go back there and have been hinting for the
past 3 years. It is where I fell in love and holds some lovely
memories.
9. What is your best memory?
The moment I saw my sons face for the first time and heard him cry. The most beautiful sound on earth. And the memory above about when I realised I was head over heels in love.
10. Your worst / saddest memory?
Getting a phone call on 25 April 2003 to tell me that one of my closet friends had died when he crashed his motorbike. He died instantly. He was 22. The event completely changed my outlook on life and I miss him every day. I gave my son his name as a middle name. Jeez, I just started blubbing!
11. What was your favourite subject at school?
At Junior School I loved Maths, at Senior School it was Art, then moving on to Sixth Form it was Psychology.

All my dreams are a bit weird but quite often I am around at the scene of a crime and I know it is me that has done the crime but I fail to believe it in the dream and try to hide the evidence (which is quite often a body).
