An Introduction

Ok, so now I have popped my blog cherry with random drivel about porn in Borders, I think I should give some detail on who’s who in my world.

For reasons that should hopefully become clear, i am not able to give any names away. This isn’t because my blog is some undercover conspiracy, that could lead to the deaths of thousands if the author was identified (you think that would bother me?). No… I work as a criminal defence lawyer in Leicester, and will probably make some references to clients (not by name of course). If it somehow got back to them, I could find myself in a whole pile of crap (and the DSS queue) so it’s really not worth the risk.

Besides, names are dull anyway.

Right, where was I? OK, well I am currently 26 and working as a dirty lawyer type as I’ve already said. I live with my loverly fiance (see below) in a homely terrace house in Leicester. We have a pet snake called Kera (i doubt anyone will trace me through her name), who spends most of her time trying to escape and eating defrosted gerbils. You have never lived, until you’ve had to take a Gas oven apart to try and extract a narky Royal Python from amid the as pipes and wires. Try it one Friday night, it’s a life experience!

My Fiance… i will think of a suitable alias for her at some point… is a very talented web designer and part-time artist. For the record, I am very proud of her, as she has more artistic talent in her little finger (which is little) then I have in my entire body (which is not-so little). She has a taste for baileys, tia maria, malibu… girly drinks in other words (apart from Archers, which makes her teeth furry apparently) and has an unhealthy obsession with computer games and hating Billie piper.

We are both originally from the lovely north-west, and came down to this oasis of crap when I finally got my current job. She earns much more money than I do, but I have conned… i mean “persuaded”… her to have her salary paid into my account. That means, I have the power and responsibility for making sure we don’t go bankrupt (and limiting the random plants that someone buys because they come in their own ceramic egg).

She is currently vary wary about whether I have somehow hypnotised her, with newly acquired skills from a Derren Brown book. She won’t quite believe me when I tell that I wouldn’t want to hypnotise her anyway… but perhaps that what I’ve told her to think

Anyway, enough paranoia for now. ’tis New Year’s Eve, and I have a large G & T to savour. Muchos Happiness to one and all!
