My Interests

Too many to poke a stick at. Unless it was a big stick. Writing, reading, music, films, studying manuscripts (uni), learning about the world, travelling (especially to India), learning languages, art deco, talking to people, playing Scrabble and Trivial Pursuit, designing and making clothes, lazing in bed, watching the world go by, collecting vinyl records, loving my antique HMV record player...

I'd like to meet:

Everyone's interesting! I like just chatting to ordinary folk. But people I would like to meet but never will... John Lennon, George Harrison, Gandhi, Graham Coxon, Gene Kelly, Billie Holiday, Virginia Woolf, Ernesto Guevara, all the Monty Python lads (though I can cross off Michael Palin, I've met him twice! Yay. I'm a geek, I know), my grandad, Francis of Assisi, Chretien de Troyes, Ronald Searle, Beck, Sufjan Stevens, Toulouse-Lautrec, Alphonse Mucha, Jimmy Dean, Spike Milligan. And many others."; I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!
