Hi, I'm Kris, 53, living in Chadwell Heath (halfway between Ilford and Romford but Chadwell Heath sounds better). I have worked in the tax side of chartered accountants offices for since 1978 and although accountants are supposed to be boring, I am trying to be the exception to that rule.
A friend who also lives to read lent me COM followed by LF and ER round about 1988 and as that was all that was written, I had to buy my own after that!
I was a "normal" reader until 2002 when I heard tell about a convention. I went to the convention and it has been all downhill from there. Conventions, Wincanton, Clarecraft, Wadfest, signings, Worldcon and now (sob) stamp collecting.....
Musical taste is eclectic but I am a bit of an old headbanger, reading, I read everything but whodunnits and I love cinema.
Favourite classic film. Some like it Hot.
Favourite discworld book was Soul Music but the Tiffany series and Nightwatch are up there too.
Favourite characters Death and Granny,
Favourite quote,
Blimey, you don't half look like your picture.
(Casanunda to the Horned Man - Lords and Ladies)
I am another cat lover and live with twins, Daemon and Kalico who will be 2 on 3 May.
As we journey through life, discarding baggage along the way, we should keep an iron grip, to the very end, on the capacity for silliness.

I love my computer, all my friends live in it.
