ok, here goes. I'm Sparky and I joined the BR back in 2004. I quickly earned my place on The Chart I live on the edge of The Peak District ,kinda between Manchester and Sheffield. I live with Sonic, who is a former BRoomer, and we got hitched in 2009. I have been to several BR meets, and organised a few. I currently have custody of the Blue Rooms banner, which Manuscript had made for us. I used to be a constant visitor to the BR, but that tailed off over time. Sadly for you lot, it looks like I'm back (And don't forget the Manchester meet is on 18th June)

thanks to STC for getting this off the ground (are you coming up soon?) I plan to. I hoped to get up this month, as my old Dad ain't getting any younger, but I need to get a wee operation over with first, and it keeps getting postponed. So annoying! It's likely to be July or August now before I can get away, and that would depend on me wringing the cash out of a few slow payers.

I joined the old BR around 2002/2003. My ID has followed me for years, originating from high school. I was married to a man once, didn't like it much. Now i'm married to a woman, and its much nicer. I work for a major baby making factory and moonlight as a fat-controller for a slimming group. I have 3 kids and a dog. I like lots, dislike little. I have a groovy smile (apparently!)
Erm....

Hi
Member of the old BR since Apr 2001. Used to post quite a bit in the early years but not much if at all of late. Maybe some of you remember the Ellen MacArthur 'A Donf' thread. Changed my id to bring it into line with everywhere else.
Been with my partner (non BR) for 16 years. Used to live in Manchester but recently moved to idyllic North Wales with our 2 staffies.
