I am in the property game in London, have a few affiliations with some Cypriot developers but I would endorse any of them, well maybe one.

Hi GG
I did have ADD as a child but that was before it had a recognised title, back then I was just known as naughty! I was the kid who you mums hated you to play with.Peed my teachers off as I was very intelligent so did all my work then disrupted everyone else.
Only took up Bacardi in my 20's and it toned down the hyperactivity. A little. Then I had a hyper child and that quietened me down.. Wouldn't recommend it to others though as a solution to making life more calm.

I work now, sort of full time(in other words, when I want to) as I have my own business but my one unfulfilled ambition seeing as I've done almost everything else is to write. Like many others, I've read lots of books and thought I can do much better but I do truly believe I could do it if I put my mind to it. I just dont have the discipline and I'm hoping that as I get older, I will someday be calm enough to put all my thoughts into words. I could use my own life experiences as they've been fun to say the least, mixed in with other stuff I've picked up along the way.

If my friends picked careers for me they used to tell me to be a comedienne, chat show host or writer so maybe my talents are wasted selling stuff to people I dont really like(my social skills are questionable at times)

Who knows what I want to be when I grow up? OR indeed if I will ever grow up...
