I have approx 30 tattoos, a couple of piercings, nipple, navel, tongue, ears, had more but took them out.

I don't work at the minute as I have a bit of a phobia of going out alone (I am a wimp lol)

I am not religious, enjoy all kinds of music and films (prefer scary films).

Not much else to say, if you want to know anything, just ask.
