User:Bettia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yes, this is my user page. As well as starting out on here I also contribute to NSwiki thanks to me controlling a number of countries on Nationstates, but I don't lurk on IRC or anything like that cos I have too much work to do. No, honestly, I do, although I seem to have time to faff around on Facebook.

Some random factoids:

• I am the grand old age of 32, and have recently celebrated my 10th wedding anniversary (incidentally, Bettia, which is the name of my main nation on Nationstates, is named after my wife Betty - ain't I a sweety?)
• I live in Cardiff but I'm definately NOT Welsh. I would like to learn it though.
• I support Bristol Rovers FC - usually it's an ordeal, but these last two seasons have been rather sweet!
• I converted to Islam just over 10 years ago. Before then I was something of a floating agnostic.
• I usually vote for the Liberal Democrats, especially in local elections.
