I like trying out new projects. Painting, sketching and generally amusing myself by making strange abstract art, which I then choose to decorate my house with. I also have a keen interest in photography.

Recently I had the most wonderful idea. I decided to grow opium poppys. Now I'm not really into flowers or anything of that nature, and I can see that this may well appear to be a rather strange hobby to want to take up, but there is method in my madness.
And you could have it all...
My Empire of Dirt.
Andy Bell is lovely and has the best voice on the planet.
I'd like to meet:
I'd like to meet like-minded people who don't take themselves too seriously. People with something to say and who aren't afraid to say it. Sex-addicts, druggies, alcoholics, porn stars, ragamuffins, freaks of nature, piano-playing palookas and YOU.. as long as you're not a total WANKER, of course!!
Julie Walters, Dawn French, Jennifer Saunders, Jane Fonda, Glinda (the witch of the north) and I'd definitely like to meet someone with the name Jocelyn.
