eBay My World: markpratt( 490)

Hiya! My name is Mark...or so I’m told! I'm a caring and easy-going guy who's here to buy and sell stuff!

I buy lots of different things, some of them for myself and some for friends and family. If I am buying for myself it tends to be CD Albums.

CD Albums, or more specifically Special and Limited Editions of CD Albums. I've got quite a large collection of them now. Before I buy a new album I always look for the 'most complete' and 'best' version of it.

I enjoy keeping myself busy with different things. I like going to the Gym, helping people, driving and listening to music. In my spare time I’m happy in front of a good DVD but also enjoy going out to the Cinema, Restaurants and maybe a Nightclub now and then. I like travelling about and going on holidays whenever I can too; the last few places I’ve been to were Orlando in Florida, Portugal and Zante. All were brilliant! I also like trying new things - I'd love to go Skydiving with friends one day and maybe even raise some money for charity along the way too. When I go out I can usually be found living it up with friends in places like Cucamara and Oceana in Nottingham. I sometimes go out in Mansfield or Sheffield too (The Late Lounge / The Leadmill).

I'll happily watch most things but I love a good horror movie - The scarier the better! A few favourites that come to mind are Paranormal Activity, Insidious, The Blair Witch Project, Scream, Final Destination, Saw and The Ring. Other films I love are The Lord of the Rings, The Matrix, Face/Off, The Rock and The Shawshank Redemption.

My music taste is one of the most varied you'll see so its probably be easier to list the music I don't like instead! I like some that everyone has heard of and some that hardly anybody has heard of. My favourite genres are Pop, Rock & Dance. I have a massive CD collection and you'll never see me driving without something playing in the background. If I had to choose one all-time favourite band it would probably be Queen and my favourite artist would be Michael Jackson. My albums of the moment have to be those by Placebo! Take a sneak peak at some of the stuff I listen to on Last.fm – http://www.last.fm/user/markpratt

One of my brother’s is the drummer in a few local bands which also helps keep me busy – I’m their Roadie and Deejay so I tag along to a lot of their gigs and help out where I can. It can be tiring sometimes but it’s all good fun! I know I’m biased but they’re great at what they do so if you get chance you feel free to check them out sometime: www.TheDollars.co.uk / www.TazerOnline.co.uk I've got a bit of a creative side and I was pretty good at Fine Art back at school. I haven’t really stuck with it but I do try to be creative with all the other things I do. I like working with computers and all things Internet too but I wouldn’t say I let them control my life, I’d much rather be away from the screen every chance I can get! I try my best to keep myself fit and healthy with visits to the local Gym, but I’m definitely not a fitness freak, like most people I’d rather be doing something else if it’s on offer! When it comes to food I pretty much get away with eating what I like, but Chic

Sports-wise I like cycling, swimming, badminton and pool, but they’ve taken a back seat recent

I tend to get on with most people. I don't have any enemies (as far as I know!) and all of my friends are nice. I'm a great listener and always happy to help people. I try my best to be there for those I care about and always treat others as I like to be treated. A lot who know me say I’m a lot like my Dad, he really is a legend and I can be proud of myself if one day I can say I’m even half the man he is. The first things people notice about me are my long eyelashes, white teeth and Harry Potter scar! Probably also that I look younger than my age but I'm sure I’ll be thankful of that in a few years! My favourite food is Chicken Curry; extra spicy please! Whoever invented it deserves a medal! We have a curry night every Thursday but I’d eat that stuff every day if I could! Pasta is a close second but generally if it's hot and spicy I'll eat it! Drinks-wise I love Dr. Pepper, Slush Puppie or a Disaronno and Coke. My favourite flavour’s Cherry but for some reason I don't like Cherries.

I spend a lot of time thinking about what I want from life...A family, nice home, financial security but mostly to be happy & healthy. I have a few strange quirks…I'm right-handed but I'm left-footed & eat with my knife & fork the 'other' way. Apparently as kids me & my brother used to split vegetable soup – we’d strain it with a sieve, he’d have the vegetables & I’d have the sauce. No idea why! I'd like to meet Freddie Mercury, Princess Diana, Michael Jackson & Rachel Stevens. I’ve recently entered the world of Property Investment & bought my first house which I rent out. I'm also on the NHS Graduate Management Training Scheme. As part of that I’m working as an Information Analyst, studying an MSc in Health Informatics at Uni College London, & a PGCert in Leadership & Service Improvement at Manchester Business School & Uni of Birmingham. A few words to describe myself are...faithful, honest, traditional, organised, patient, loyal, tidy, respectful, committed & waffly versatile!
