I'd say my favourite hobby is enjoying really good food, I can cook too which is a bonus with the above lol ! I love Steak with Peppercorn Sauce, I love Italian Food - Lasagne, Carbonara **mouth waters** BANOFEE PIE !!
However I do love other things lol. I enjoy walking my dogs (brilliant time to reflect and think about things), I enjoy GOOGLING online anything I may find interesting. I love dancing, so at weekends I enjoy going out in Town with my friends... I LOVE ROAST DINNERS !! I forgot that lol..

I'm 22, I rent a 2 bed flat with my friend Marie, in Maidstone, Kent, with Star, my staffie i've had from a puppy, but she's 2 years old now. And Berry, my new addition who's only 9 weeks at the time of this going to press lol !!
Star, is my beautiful little blue & white pied staffordshire who I actually found in the paper ads back in January of 2007. I drove to Swanley to get her, and it was love at first sight (basically I looked at her, she fell asleep on me lol) I had a hard time the month before December, and when I bought Star, she took all that pain away with her love and affection, and it didn't feel like any of that mattered anymore. She's a beautiful, caring animal, and I love her with all my heart.
Berry is mostly blue, with a white blaze on her chest and white socks. She is K.C reg, and is a very good example of the breed.
I do work fulltime, but I am also looking into doing volunteer work for the RSPCA one day a week at a local Kennel or Clinic, and have contacted the RSPCA online, and have been given the number of the local centres to call. Am now awaiting on the outcome :-)
I love animals, especially dogs, and get really upset and frustrated that I can't make a real difference to so many dogs (and pets) that are in pain. When I see adverts online, and read awful articles on animal cruelty, animal testing, poaching etc, it really affects me. I would've loved to have studied Animal Law Legislations but sadly this cannot be studied as just the one module (it would have no real purpose on its own in terms of employment/etc) I don't think enough people are aware of the poor creatures that are in pain and we all need to be more vigilant towards whats going on in the world from the poor bears who are being bear baited, to the tuna caught dolphins, to the pit bulls / staffies which are still be used for illegal fights. I wish we could put an end to it all.
Sorry rant over lol. BUT if anyone does see my point and agree, or have your own opinions, please please post a comment, would love to hear them.
Turn Ons:
My partner (see below box)
People who have a passion for something, and enjoy talking about it, in my case I have a passion for animals.
People who have they're own opinions, and can voice them in a open minded way, and want to listen to other people's opinions too - so someone who is good at conversation lol !!
Turn Offs:
My partner lol (also see above box)
People who swear in nearly every sentence, or just for the sake of swearing- if you HAVE to swear why not swear because you want to exaggerate what your saying because you really mean it, instead of using it whenever you can... I hate that
People who know nothing about something, but seem to think its right for them to state they're opinions as if they are fact. For example : people - not owners - being critical to the staffy breed when they know NOTHING about it...Another example, my boyfriend who knows nothing about dogs, telling me the Rhodisian Ridgeback and Rottweiler are the same dog ...
We couldn't get her Sunday so we are getting her this Friday, I am SO EXCITED !! Going to take so many pictures and post them immediate, better still videos :D
Hope your well ?? Belle is a BEAUTIFUL blue isn't she, you must b so proud xxxxxx
Thank you Tamara for your compliments on my Belle , and now i have to remember to keep looking for your new piccies or vids of your baby when you have her ... i cant wait ooo puppies i love em
Hi tamara, hope all is good with you, we are all sitting around our pc totally transfixed at the pictures of your puppy berry, what a beautifull looking fur ball. Takes us back to when our boys, paddy and paws were little fur balls, now they are big fur balls lol. I bet berry and star keep you busy !!!!!!!!!!!.I have only just found this site which i feel is a breath of fresh air, its good to find like minded people who love these amazing dogs for what they are, loyal, loving and trustworthy.I get so wound up when people say to me, " you have got 2 kids and 2 of them fighting dogs in the same house " Talk about small minded .They want to spend less time reading and watching the media who are always putting staffys down !!!!!!!! .A few days ago there were reports that 2 staffys had attacked a child and sure enough the next day we were walking paddy and paws and the looks we were getting , like oh my god, theres 2 of them killer dogs, we just smile now, no point in getting upset. Chat soon, you take care yeh .
