About Me

Antonia - Beauty Health Finance and Green Issues Editor: London, United Kingdom; Honesty, integrity, contentment, care about others, kind, warm, loving, caring, don't tell lies, speak my mind.

This is a politically correct free area.

I don't like snakes, most especially two-faced conniving snakes in the grass. I don't like fake people. What you see is what you get from me.

Remember: A blog is a snapshot of a moment in time of thoughts and opinions that a person is feeling at a given time. Therefore, my blog is NOT my whole life.

We are all individuals with freedom of thought and expression, however, I like to associate with people who think logically and sensibly.

Live and let live!

I have a BSc(Hons) degree in Business Information Technology (doesn't mean much these days, pretty worthless), initially have a Science background. I wanted to study Pharmacy or Journalism when I was younger.

There are some things science cannot explain!

I have worked since I was 17 in a number of jobs. I am accustomed to working hard and get bored in jobs where there is not enough challenge to occupy my mind.

I enjoy all Business and Information Technology topics.

Thank you to all the online angels and good people out there who help to keep track of my blog.
