"Friends" Personal Page by africaking


Victoria, a.k.a. Cha Cha, a.k.a. sugarpuff

Vicky or Cha Cha as I call her, also a VT member (username: sugarpuff) has been a friend of mine for about 2 years, I met her whilst working in Gibraltar as a barman, she worked as a waiteress at the same place.

We would often spend a night out together or with other friends in order to have as much fun as possible, of course this usually involved lots of alcohol and a nightclub, we would constantly be laughing on our nights out usually at each other, in fact even at times when it isn't needed, like the time I thought I broke my chest while I did my spiderman impression, but that is another long story.

She now lives and works in China, she is a news reporter for a large Chinese TV station and regulary comes on line to insult me, all in the name of fun.

Phil and Kelly

Phil and Kelly are a couple I met whilst working in Gibraltar at the same place I met Vicky.

Phil is a New Zealander and Kelly is an Aussie, quiet a fiery mix already. Phil is the kind of guy who can't do nothing, what I call a tinkerer, he will drill, paint, fix, replace and clean everything in sight, the perfect worker but at the end of the day he can relax like the rest of us.

Kelly is your true Aussie chick, friendly, loud (in a good way), chatty, almost like one of the lads, although I'm sure she wouldn't like me to say that, she can also be very assertive when she has to be, almost to the point of scary, with Kelly it's what you see is what you get, which is what I like most about her.

I chat to her every now and then on the phone, and we seem to chat about absolutely nothing, which is a waste of my phone bill really but it's worth it for the laughs.

Kirsty, Aimee and Suzie

These band of evil do-ers are friends that I met in Gibraltar, again!

Kirsty is from Northern England and loves to gossip, a down to earth girl who will have you in stitches from noon till night, one of the best bosses I had, a class act.

Aimee is from Michigan, USA and is your typical hippie girl who dislikes sexist remarks and agressive people, an amazingly friendly person and great drinking buddy and a fountain of knowledge.

Suzie is from England and has moved out to Spain with her kid and boyfriend, she is so laid back I'm surprised she didn't stop dead, but so funny and sometimes dizzy, a chatty girl, I call her my African Queen.

Nicola

Nicola is Gibraltarian and worked at the same place I did in Gibraltar, a fantastic artist and in her own world at times, arn't they all?

She was usually straight forward with people and didn't like hassles, she would come out with the most hilarious comments at times and she seemed to know everyone in Gibraltar and Spain, she is your basic rock chick, who likes to wear things that show she's not shy, a good friend.

Vicky and Cristina

Vicky was the Manager at the place I worked and Cristina ended up working there too.

Vicky is a strange fish, she is quite a shy person and doesn't like confrontation, but has a fantastic mind to improve business, as well as being very artistic, a good person to chat to once she comes out of her shell, full of so many ideas, it's refreshing.

Cristina is the nicest most pleasant person you will ever come across, she will go out of her way to help you and never seems to have a bad thought against anyone, at the end of the day she is a true lady.

A quick mention about my friends

These are my other friends who I don't seem to have a picture for.

Greg - From South Africa, treated me like a brother, made my return trip to S.A. the best I have ever had.

Sanda - Originally from Sri Lanka but lives in Cornwall, U.K. as dizzy as they come, but a huge laugh.

Clare - From Northern England, family owns Robinson's drinks co. A lively girl who's not afraid of anything, a real party girl.

Hannah (from Cornwall), Clair (from Ireland), Lucy and Alan (from Cornwall, now married), Patrick (from Manchester), I could go on and on but it wouldn't interest you, besides I'm getting bored now.
