Thank you ^_^ I've decimated my charts though, so I've had to make a new one up and am spending the night marking this one up properly.

Angel, that's amazing! It looks so pretty :D

I know what you mean Dazbo and Angel - I'm a 'rock chick' - love rock music, go to bike rallies (sadly injured my back on site when I was booked in for my CBT though - so I'm in the market for a trike!).

Most of my friends are in a local bike club, and like Daz, my Hubbie and friends think I'm rather 'unique' in that one day I can be out headbanging to one of my favourite rock bands, drinking Guinness like it's going out of fashion, then the next, sitting with comfy slippers on, sipping coffee, cross stitching, knitting and crochet. :king:

I have a rufty tufty biker friend who is all tattoos and piercings and leather, and he collects angel figurines :D :D

I don't do stereotypes...

One of my favorites is when I'm between shifts, having a daytime stitching session while listening to Slipknot, Metallica or Linkin Park on Scuzz TV Image

I'm glad I'm not alone any more :dance:

Haha, I hadn't thought of that, LOL

I was told that good boys and girls dont use knots ??
(...but I've never been the type to do as I was told)

Stereotyping sucks, as a granny with a little grey Ford Ka, looks tiny, but goes like a (small) rocket, I love the looks I get from boy racers when I leave them (nearly) standing at the lights with something like System Of A Down blasting away with my windows open :dance:

Angel usually listens to old music. Maiden, metalica, saxon, rainbow.... People stopped giving angel odd lucks forever ago though. Something about listening to 80s metal, playing barbie, dreaming of off road biking and dressing like a 12th centuary princess... People gave up.

Thanks guys.

Looks fantastic hun and i say each to the own as long as ur all happy doing what ur doing, listening to what u listen to....then it doesnt matter what anyone thinks.

As long as ur all doing it safe and not forcing it on people, no-one should judge u and should leave u to it. If they can accept u for who u are, they aint worth knowing (most of the time).

A few of u listen to rock music.. im at the other end and listen to happy hardcore, i would never judge any of u for what u listen to or what u dress like, nor anyother reason. Ur all lovely people and i like u for U!!!

Cant stand wanna bes who are up there own ***, but will give everyone a chance.

Angel:- i think u look great the way u dress, from the pics we have seen and good on ya girl :D and again great work :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce:

*agrees with Sammy* Everyone is unique :D the media just likes to change this point of view >.>

:lol: :lol: Jilly

I remember being at school and hiding the fact that I was/am a hardcore video gamer... because it was perceived as being "geeky" :? Now I wonder why WHY did I even think like that :doh:

Angel hasn't updated this in a while... But she has been slowly plodding onwards looksee:

But oooooh the colour changes are doing Angels head in. Angel liked doing the bear and the cake, but now it's mainly those bobbly bits Angel isn't enjoying it half as much and progress is awfully slow.

Pics are on Mattys phone, I haven't got them back yet, but when I do I will be posting them ^_^ The children thought I was some sort of princess. I was very poorly though so I didn't do my hair properly or my make-up and then I conceded to wearing a coat for the first fright night ever! I usually tough it out, but the cold simply got the better of me and I huddled into mattys jacket.

Then I lost my voice totally at 7:30 and we hid in the costa coffee where it was warm because I was shivering enough to run a households electricity if you hooked me up to a genny. And we listened to ghost stories.
