My name’s Mark Clifford. I’m from Scotland, but now I live in London. I am a student. I study medicine. I’m 17, I’m Scorpio and I’m single. I am of average height. I have got dark hair, green eyes. Let’s say athletic built. I speak English, French. I’m very happy to meet new people, I’m sociable. I like eating out, reading and travelling. I listen to all kinds of music, but my favourite is jazz. I love football - it’s my favourite sport.
My oldest friend is Brian. He is well- built and has broad shoulders. His hair is black. His forehead is quite low, he has got thick eyebrows. Brian usually wears sport clothes. He likes wearing jeans and sport shoes too. He studies in a different city now, so I only see him at weekends and during the holidays. He’s important to me because he knows me so well.
We have a really good laugh together and we enjoy the same things – football, clubbing, the usual stuff. If I have a problem, Brian is the first person I ask for advice – and he always gives me good advice. He always has good hopes for the future. He thinks everything will be fine. He’s very optimistic. But he isn’t perfect. He’s always late for everything and he never says sorry. Never! Oh, well, nobody’s perfect, are they? He’s still a really good mate.
