About Me

Hey! I'm 26 (eek!), live in Bath, a girl, a bit of a dreamer, currently dreaming of my one day having a social life again as things are a bit dull in Bath at the moment...sigh. Things I like: Bosendorfer pianos (the kind that make you sound good no matter what you play on them), playing guitar and singing too, Victoria Park in Bath, talking rubbish and generally wandering around in a daze. Oh yeah and check out the video of Neil Finn at Stowe school, this song makes me shiver!

My Interests

I love travelling and discovering new things. Have a bit of a thing for butterfly inspired jewellery. I play piano and guitar and love reading and films but not all at once obviously...I havent got enough hands.

I'd like to meet:

I think David Tennant has just overtaken Pharrell Williams in the would like to meet stakes. Its a close call. I met Neil Finn once...surprisingly small in real life.

Music:

Tori Amos, Kate Bush, Finn brothers, Editors, Maximo Park, Bic Runga, Pixies, Guillemots, Kooks, Betchadupa, Depeche Mode, Suzanne Vega, Amiee Mann, N.E.R.D., Split Enz, Pearl Jam, Jeff Buckley,Snow Patrol, The Longcut, Captain, Bob Dylan, The Stones, Jimi Hendrix, New Order, Joy Division, Sonic Youth, Hot chip, Klaxons, Arcade Fire, Cat Stevens

Movies:

My favourite movie of all time is the Red Shoes about a ballerina who is torn between dancing and the man she loves, eventually dancing herself to death. So tragic, with fab costumes too!

Television:

Dont bother much

Books:

Just read Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishigaro, very good but very sad. Hate the Da Vinci code, I am agnostic but this book is pants don't read it.

My Blog

Can electric fans write music?

Finished a song today that was started by my electric fan by the bed.  The fan sounds like it makes two chords as it whirs around and one night I was trying to fall asleep by making a tune to it....
