Pen Pals : 6

Pen Pals

My name is Danny Grant. I'm 26 years old and I live in Worthing, West Sussex, on the south-east coast of England.

Really, it's not the south east coast, but that's just me being pedantic. For those of you who are not aware, it's referred to as God's waiting room because of all the old-people's homes there are. One person even suggested it's a cemetery with lights on.

Anywho, it's about 56 miles from London as the crow flies.

Why do they say that? Have you even seen a crow fly? It's all over the place…

Yeah, right…

So anyway, that's where I live.

I have a small flat there. They call it a studio flat, which just means that if you sit on the bed, except for the shower/toilet, you can practically reach everything in the who flat - handy in some cases, not in others.

There's a wicked view of the sea from the window, which is why I put up with it being a bit on the small side. I'm right opposite the beach, so it's pretty cool.

I'm doing this course because it means I can work from home.

I do most things from home, I like it that way.

Mum reckons I'm like that girl on that film — The Net, only I'm not a girl. She says I should get out more, but I say stick with what you're comfortable with.

Anyway, I do go out, I'm just not in the pub every night like she and all her piss-head friends are, but you didn't want to know that did you? You want to know stuff like whether I have a cat named Fluffy or my favourite colour is purple or something.

Sorry to disappoint.

Danny
