Movies , collecting Dragons , Music

When I'm not out supporting my clients I like to sit back and relax and watch a favourite movie, some I have seen numerous times and will  watch again.  I have a large Collection of DVDS which I have collected over many Years. 

I fell in love with Dragons many years ago they have such a strength and mystical way about them and they enhance my spirituality through the constant protection.

Music has been a life long love and will be with me till the day I leave this earth , I like many different genres of music and many different musicians but my favourite would be hip hop, rap and RNB.
