The La Rue

Gingers. Lordy.

About Me

I left the warm embrace of uni last year with the only good thing coming from it being meeting my fellow la rue. I then got a proper job. And kept my old more crappy job as I am a martyr. I think I can handle red wine, but apparently I really cannot. I like bands. Sometimes I go to see them which is nice, at these gatherings I like to drink fanta. I also enjoy going to the dance halls of Brighton and having a jive about. I recently discovered the black and white button on my camera and have been abusing it ever since (see pics for documentation of this abuse). I’m fond of going to speakeasies in Brighton with friends and having comical times together. I have a car called Tyrone. I’m soon to turn 22 which is mildly exciting , the excitement is dampened by my opinion that the age of 22 will sound very boring when I answer people enquiring to how old I am, no where near as swish as being 21 , huff. I rarely add salt or pepper to my food.
