Thanks for the great welcome Andy and tro1, I really appreciate it and can tell I am going to enjoy my time here.
I am a Hearts fan, I've supported them for 20 years and go to all the home matches.
My favourite music I like is Gareth Gates, Westlife, Sugababes, Christina Aguilera, Lee Ryan, Pussy Cat Dolls, Robbie Williams.

Hi, glad you are enjoying your time here.
What do you make of what is going on hearts at the mo? Foreign chairman pulling managerial strings? Has he invested in the team? It's good to see you doing well and Rangers struggling.

Have you been to any gigs at all? The last album I bought was Lee Ryans, and the last single I bought was also Lee Ryan and it was When I Think Of You.
I think the highlight of supporting Hearts so far is that I have seen them win the scottish cup, Also another highlight is that I have got to know a lot of the players past/present and I also know the former management Jim Jefferies and Billy Brown.
I have been to gigs before,
Gareth Gates X2 James X3 (They've split up now) Neil Diamond X2 Jimmy Nail X2 911 X2
I am also going to see Westlife at the SECC on May 6th, and possibly seeing them here in Edinburgh at the castle on the 21st of July.
I'm not happy about whats been going on at Hearts, I think George Burley going was the worst thing ever. He was a GREAT manager and I had huge respect for him,
There was a real boost in the team when he was there, I suppose only time will tell what is going to happen with regards to how the league and everything will turn out.
I do hope that Hearts can win it though, They have as good a chance as any club. No offence to any Rangers fans or anything. But personally I think they aren't as good as they were and it really shows when they play,

Ooh Jim Jefferies, fairly sure he is on old Berwick Rangers manager, did a top job for us.

Jim and Billy both brought the cup back to Tynecastle when Hearts won in 1998, Their a GREAT team both of them. I know them well through going to the Hearts ground and waiting outside for the players,
I would say our best young player would have to be Callum Elliot, He's GREAT and always gives his all whenever he plays. And he gets goals for us too which is important,
I'm proud to be scottish.

So what do you like and dislike about edinburgh then? I like the scenery, the food, the football obviously is a big thing for me.
The one thing I don't like is the weather, I would say thats my only dislike as its always raining and we get really bad conditions.

I'm going to the football on Sunday and I'm not sure what I'll be doing tomorrow.
What about you?, I hope Reading win this weekend if their playing anyone. I try and listen to the scores but always seem to miss some,
