Great thread!

I'm Lou, I'm 26 and am Intelligence Officer in Police, which I double love!
I did a degree in Food Marketing in Sheffield and worked developing new products for Waitrose and M&S, however, after doing a 3 year degree and working in industry for 3 further years, I decided to made a radical move and join Police, honestly the best thing I've ever done.

Hi troops, I'm Heather (as suggested by the shiny rotating hearts in my siggy!) I'm a 33 year old female (lots of names are unisex but I haven't come across a male Heather yet!). I live in the Gower Peninsula half an hour from Swansea (the jutting out bit of coastline below the Pembrokeshire jutting out bit). I am blessed to be living with my hubbie of 9 years (whoooo!) and living in a rural village (Llanmadoc) with so much going on I haven't got time to go to work!! Unfortunately though I have to- I'm a staff nurse on a cardiac intensive care unit, looking after poorly people immediately after their open heart surgery- bypass grafts, valve replacements, things like that- oh and we also look after people after lung surgery. As if that's not enough, my dh and I have 2 cottages (well a cottage and an apartment) in our village in Gower that we let for holidays!! If any of you would like/or know anyone who would like a holiday, our websites are www.cottages-gower.co.uk and www.cottageingower.co.uk Give us a shout! (Sneaky bit of advertising there!!) I don't have any kiddywinkles or pets. I started my SW journey on October 26th with a view to losing 5 stone and I'm just over half way there so pleased as punch!X
