Some of the things I've made (with some help) include naan bread pizzas, different types of pasta, sweet and sour chicken with ... |

| I didn't leave sixth form until I was 18 and I didn't go straight into a job and instead went to college to study a BTEC Diploma in art and design for two years. I didn't really know how to use money until I was 20. I did voluntary work at a couple of charity shops before I left them to go to Univer... |

| It's not just heart attacks but even strokes, cancers and so on. I seem to feel that as someone of my age I probably don't need to worry about them but I still hear stories of people in their 20s, 30s and 40s having these issues even though I seem think these types of things happen to much older peo... |

It does seem morbid but it makes me think it must be the most common end for a bad guy/girl in film and TV culture. It doesn't matter if your choices are human, animal or whatever. My one I can name is Hans Gru... |
