Who inspired you when you were a wee nipper.

Always wanted to follow Seb Coes footsteps. then came college, Uni, partying... smoking.... beer...

:(
 
I loved Seb Coe and Daly Thompson... my inability to be a sports person put paid to that though!!! I have raced against Paula Radcliffe... and when I say against I mean we both did the Great North Run... she did it in half the time I did!!
One of my big heros was the manager of our local pool. He was so cool, he could dive in the shallow end and swim for length and length. I always wanted him to notice my swimming but I never even saw him smile.
Eventually, when I worked for social services I met him again; in a wheelchair with multiple scelrosis. :(
It gave me the inspiration to follow my dreams in everything I do.
Sorry to get all serious on you :roll:

Boy George (dare I say it!)

I've always been into that androgyny thing that Pete Burns and the like do so well...society just can't cope with it and I love people that challenge gender stereotypes.

...It's not for the gay connotations at all if I might add.

(and no, for the record I'm not a tranny - just haven't found the correct stylist yet!)

I did call myself She-Ra once, me and Paul came back from a night out, and when I opened the gate to our house, it somehow came off in my hands, so I turned around and handed it to Paul telling him, I was in fact She-Ra, and that he should consider himself lucky to have such a woman 8O :lol: :lol:
