About Me

Hello and welcome to my patch of blogland!  I’m Zyle, otherwise known as Ally in the Real World.  Nice to meet you!  I have been living happily together with my boyfriend Peter for the past 4 years after a long distance relationship which began in 2000!  Our beautiful kitty cat Zara joined the family at the end of 2007.

I love to knit and crochet, and together Peter and I host and maintain the Phoenix Knitting Forums, an amazing community of truly wonderful friends.  I’ve been knitting for just over two years now and crocheting for about 6 months.  I’m also a self confessed geek gamer.  I love my videogames, Peter and I even met in an online game back in 2000.  We have been running a gaming guild since 2002 called Nemo Nisi Mors, which has become a close group of friends.  We’ve played many games over the years, most notably Ultima Online, World of Warcraft and Lord of the Rings Online.  I also love sci-fi; we can regularly be found watching shows like Babylon 5, Stargate SG1, Star Trek and Battlestar Galcatica.

In Real Life, I am a Paid Search Professional working for a Search Marketing agency.  I’m currently in charge of several large global ppc accounts, specialing in international ppc campaign optimisation.
