Everything About me

Hope you all had a lovely Christmas! Introduction Nearing my 150th review and my second Ciao anniversary I decided to do a questionnaire style review for the All About Me category. I requested my closest fellow Ciao members to ask anything they’d like to read about me in this review. I hope you’ll enjoy. Ciao - MEow 1. What made you join Ciao and what keeps you here? I discovered it accidentally when I was looking for perfume reviews written by others to enlarge my perfume collection. Ciao did have one review for Yellow Jeans Versace I was interested in however I didn’t feel it was complete ... more

Some of you will have read my reviews about my childhood .. my Dad and our complex relationship and the probable link between that and the person who I am now . Living with him forced me to learn a sense of humour .. it was a survival strategy I suppose .. laugh at something and it loses its power over you .. the power to hurt or damage That doesn't mean that nothing touched me .. it did , and that will have been obvious from my previous ramblings .. but it meant that I could relegate those experiences to a separate part of my being . There they could become part of a history which felt as if ... more

Q1: Name? A1: Louise Catherine Hackett. That’s my married name and I am very soon to be divorced but I don’t think I will go back to my maiden name purely because I don’t really like the idea of my son having a different last name to me. It’s a toughie. Q2: D.O.B? A2: 13th April 1980….you know you are getting older when you have to scroll down when filling your year of birth in on websites :( Q3: Eye Colour? A3: Hazel Q4: Hair Colour? A4: Brown, though my sister keeps telling me it is multi coloured! Q5: Height? A5: Oh I am tiny! 5 foot one! Q6: What is the first thing you do in the morning ... more

T.L.C Time Love Career Yes my dear members of Ciao, I'm back! Firstly may I thank you all for the kind comments, guest book messages and support. I honestly never thought I would return back to this site, but I guess there is a time for everything to be given a second chance, at least that is what I have learned in the past two months I have been away. The past two months have taught me a lot. Not only has so many things changed around me, but I myself, feel like a whole new Dempsey. Although I felt I lost a lot over a certain period of time, I seemed to have gained a lot in the process. Life ... more

I found this easy review while I was reading some member reviews; I had a quick look and found that most of the questions and answers were quite silly really, so I challenged myself and tried to answer all the 20 questions, which purposed to be about me, but really wasn't. Still, it is a nice break from the usual; maybe next time I should write a long and precise review about ME! So, this review is a bit of fun and some change; I hope you won't be too bored! 1. How long on average does it take you to get rid of someone trying to sell you something over the telephone? Well it depends…I have a ... more
