IMPORTANT I wish to say that anyone who doesn't receive a swap from me, please email me before rating. Most of the time I will be able to resend - a lot of stuff can get lost in the post . I NEVER FLAKE!!

I am a stay at home mum to my little boy who's 5. I have lived in N.Ireland virtually all my life & although my parents came from Hong Kong originally....I was born and brought up here. I am happily engaged to my partner of 7 years.

As well as being a SAHM, I am currently studying with the OU... I have a deep passion for languages,and speak Chinese, English as well as French. You're never too old to learn!

I have just added new items to my ETSY store, feel free to take a look, I sell handmade cards & jewellery. New items are constantly added so do check back regularly!! New in are some cute Christmas cards!!!

I am a recently converted pet lover, and have 3 hamsters, and 7 coldwater fish.

I would be happy to receive most things and I'm not fussy (however if you do need some inspiration, check out my wishlist/wishpot below).

I like most chart stuff, 80's groups , pop & indie & some dance. Examples: Abba, Cantopop, Coldplay, Keane, Leona Lewis, Snow Patrol, Britney Spears, recent Madonna stuff, T'Pau (the best), Oasis, Helene Segara, Rihanna plus much more.

Don't really watch them that much but my faves are: The Joy Luck Club, Ghost, Legends of the Fall, Jean de Florette, Titanic
