About Me

I live in Exeter where I have lived my whole life because it is very nice. I run the Cavern Club with my friend Dave, which is an outrageously cool venue for punk and indie bands.I like guinea pigs and rabbits. I hate cars, am vegetarian and a member of the Bronte society. My main interest in life is wearing good skirts. I am always worried. I'm quite funny and I'm always right. I do fall over a lot though.

My Interests

Tea. Skirts&Dresses. Hot baths.The Brontes. Guineapigs&Rabbits. The Cavern Club. Writing. Reading. Southend&Nefyn. Giving stuff up. Playing badminton-watching tennis. Eating. Photos. Walking everywhere is my new main obsession. And Freakscene Records. Yes.

I'd like to meet:

you for a cup of tea.....
