Pyro being short for pyromaniac, I'd have to say I'm living up to it pretty well. The lighter is 10 inches away from my hand, the matches, 3 feet, after I post I think I'm gonna go light some candles!

hmmm...

just thinking about my family...

no, i wouldn't say they are dreadfully talkative - i get the laurels for non-stop chat, and i'm the only one who doesn't speak with a cockney accent (pure, BBC RP, me).

where has your image of the "prototypical cockney" come from?

I think I made it up by watching the character, Bert in the movie, Mary Poppins.

Yep! I live up to my nic. I was born with pointy ears (like dr spoc) 8) with an inch long hair growing out the top. :)
The ears have grown normal and the inch long hair has gone but I am short. I love nature and especially trees.
When my ex-girlfriend and I watched the video of our three day drive up the east coast of australia, most of it was of trees and us saying "oh cool look at the trees, look at the trees!" :lol:
