Batmamma

At the moment I'm taking a short break from swapping, basically cause I just don't have much spare time right now. I will be back as soon as I can :)

..mum to 2 lovely boys. My boys are called Marcus and Charlie and they are 11 and 8 years old.

Living in Sweden, that´s where I´m from, but I have also lived almost nine years in England and a little piece of my heart will always be dedicated to Manchester :)

I am now studying Environmental Science at uni so I'm cutting down on the amounts of swaps that I'm in. I rather do a few to a good standard than sending out a lot of hastily-thrown-together things :)

At the moment I´m mainly doing ATC´s, skinnys and bookmarks. I crochet in front of the telly, but I'm not that good at it :-P

When I have time I bring out my water colours or acrylic paints and just see what "comes out of my hand"..

I like sewing but my machine broke last year and I've not had the funds or time to find a replacement so that's on hold.

I listen to allsorts of music, but theres is a certain place in my heart for Swedish lovesongs

Some alltime favourites include Queen, Robbie Williams, Suede, early Guns n' Roses and Kent (Swedish band). I also like 90's indie bands from the UK like James, The Verve and Oasis

I'm lucky enough to have two boys which mean that I get to enjoy films like Cars and Karate Kid.

It´s been too long since I´ve been to the cinema so I keep missing all the films I want to see, guess I have to start renting dvd´s when shopping at my local for groceries :)

I can watch almost any film (apart from scary ones) but I´m hard to impress, but even so it´s sometimes nice to sit down and watch something that will allow you to switch your brain of.

Read a lot, mainly classics or crime. There are one or two chic lits in my book case, aswell as spiritual books and science.

Also thinking that maybe I should start reading Harry Potter, might be one of the few people left in this world who has not read a Harry P book or seen a Harry P film..
