I'm Shazie, 33 years old, married to a very special man, and I live in Manchester in the UK.

I have a German Shepherd Called Tara, who is 7 years old and a cat called Tish, who is 16, they are both my babies...lol

My hobbies are computers, PSP (Paint Shop Pro) and cross stitch, but since learning how to use PSP, about 18 months ago, my cross stitch has been confined to boxes under the bed...lol

I started learning PSP with Version 7, then I progressed to Version 8 and I'm currently using Version 9, which I think is brilliant and a vast improvement on Version 7.

I hope to try and start writing PSP tutorials but at the moment, my time is a little limited, but please keep checking my website to see if I've managed any...lol

I am currently doing a couple of Free Online course on the Internet, to learn Web Design

I first learnt how to write web pages, using only Notepad by doing the Budding HTML Gurus Course, last year.

I then went on to take my first step into learning how to design a Web Page by doing the Juelles Beginners Web Design Course, which includes the first 10 lessons. I am currently just starting the Juelles Advanced Web Design Course, this section of the course carries on with lessons from 11 to 20.
