Frankly I'm glad of the break from you all...

About Me

I'm a ballerina, an idiot, the person most likely to answer the phone at four in the morning. I'm one of the founding members of the performer collective 'The Victor and Vanquished'. I like to write but I can't keep to deadlines. I'd like to be glamorous but I suspect I shall always be a teeny bit grubby. And I'm fairly sure that I'm probably having more fun than you......

Nice little review on London-Eating website...

Generally optimistic about pros and cons of first nights out, I hope to offer a balanced review of Volupte, as it has a few minor niggles but certainly enough upsides to make it worthwhile. I read in ...
