About Me

Name: Silver

DOB: 22nd June 1988

So that makes me: 19

Eyes: Hazel

Hair: Halfway down my back, sort of straight - it curls at the bottom - and brown! When I was born it was black, but it's got a lot lighter now.

Real Pets: One rabbit called Benjamin and two dogs called Solei and Vale!

Live In: England, United Kingdom

Brothers and Sisters: None

Favourite Colours: Green and Silver! I also like yellow, blue and purple...but I like nearly all colours ^_~

Favourite Film: Probably Grease, but generally I'm not a big film person.

Favourite Animal: Hmm...probably dogs and horses (and frogs, of course), but I love all animals

Favourite Singer/Group: Queen! Ah yes..*starts singing Queen songs*

Petz programs owned: Catz, Dogz 2, Catz 2, Dogz 3, Catz 3, Dogz 4, Catz 4, Dogz 5 and Catz 5. In other words all except Dogz 1

Collect: Pokemon cards, Neopets cards, cuddly toy dogs and frogs of any description!

Voluntary Work: I used to help at the RSPCA, I started in about 1996/1997. I think I've now accepted that I can't do that anymore though. I also help regularly (about twice a week) at a local special school for kids with severe learning difficulties which I've been doing since 2003.

Other stuff: I've had problems pretty much all my life, then in 1998 I was diagnosed with M.E. Although as time went on it became increasingly untypical the medics were reluctant to accept it could be anything else and we kept being fobbed off with "just give it time" and that kind of thing. It's now thought that I have a muscular condition of some sort, possibly under the "muscular dystrophy" umbrella. I am annoyed that it took them so long to accept there might be something else - I may not have become this disabled or not as quickly at any rate. I also lost a very important part of my life which I can never get back now - my teenage years have all been spent predominantly in bed and I haven't been to school properly since Year 5 (age 9-10). I never got to do the growing up that people take for granted. On a lighter note, if you have any suggestions for TDP please e-mail me and let me know! My email address is on the contact page.

I got this questionaire...so I've filled it in for you!

1. What time do you wake up in the morning??
Usually between 7 and 8

2. Gold or Silver
Now technically you're asking me to pick between the colour of my dog and myself. Impossible!

3. What was the last film you saw at the cinema?
*cough* Elmo in *cough* Grouchland *cough* - in about 1999 I think ;-)

4. Favourite tv show?
I like most quiz shows - who wants to be a millionaire, catchphrase, university challenge..etc. I enjoy the news when it's not being depressing, which is rarely! I love the older Challenge programmes too - Krypton Factor, Crystal Maze, Blockbusters, Knightmare..etc

5. What do you have for breakfast?
Usually toast

6. Can you touch your nose with your tongue?
Nope!

7. Who inspires you?
Many people in many different ways

8. What's your middle name?
Mary

9. Beach or city?
Beach over city, country over beach! I prefer beaches out of season when they're quieter.

10. Summer or winter?
Winter has the edge I think. I love the way the nights draw in and it's dark more of the time, it's Christmas and if you're lucky you get snow! However having said that by the time winter is over I'm ready for spring ;-)

11. Favourite ice cream??
Dairy-free of some sort :-P I'm partial to the Raspberry Ripple...

Depends what mood I'm in but often I'm happy with just a scraping of margarine.

14. If you had a big win on the lottery, how long would you leave before you told people?
Hmm...10 seconds?!

15. Fizzy or still water as a drink?
Definitely still. I can't stand anything fizzy.

16. What colour is your bathroom?
Primrose yellow with white tiles, some with frogs on!

17. How many keys on your key ring?
Two. My house key and my locker key (I really should give that back....)

18. Where would you retire to?
Hmm...I'd love to go to Scotland or a remote part of Yorkshire.

19. Can you juggle, if yes how many?
2..so strictly no

20. Favourite day of the week?
Saturday and/or Sunday, cos most of my friends are online!

21. Red or white wine?
Yuck =p

22. What did you do for your last birthday?
I was on the internet all day and saw no-one except my parents. What a sad excuse for an 18th...

23. Do you carry a donor card?
Yes, though because of my health problems I'm not sure it does much good
