Modelling (since people ask!)
Please contact me about TFP/CD (or you can pay me if you like!) - I'm happy to model for you as long as I like the idea and as long as you can take decent photos! I don't do nude, and my boyfriend comes with me to shoots (he won't interfere and in fact comes in handy to hold reflectors). I'm open to ideas! I like the fun of modelling - dressing up and being creative - for me, it's not about being the centre of attention and polishing my ego.
Librarian by day, Pin-up by night!
I love 50s and early 60s style, and also music from that period. I'm not averse to more current stuff, but to be honest it's only The Smiths and Morrissey that I am particularly passionate about. And bearing in mind he's got his head stuck in the past as well, it's not much of a surprise.
I like a bit of indie music too - , Suede, The Divine Comedy, Pulp, Joy Division & New Order, Blur, Interpol, Franz, Kaiser Chiefs. I don't like swing music all that much as I find it a bit too sleek, though I do like loungecore. Pretty much, if it's raw or it's melodramatic or miserable-with-nice-guitars, then I like it. Hell, I even like opera, as long as it's Maria Callas singing it! I think Billie Holiday is awesome, and I like some soul, as long as it's not too polished, but the whole Northern Soul thing baffles me as I find it a bit dull.
I don't like limiting myself to listening to "just this" or "just that" because of a tag. I cannot bear most chart music these days, and what passes for punk is a travesty of fakery.
Aside from music and clothes (and been a genealogy geek!) and that sort of thing, I adore animals.
Right, I'll stop boring you now. Look at the pictures. ;)
