According to him, I look like Ginger Rogers, Diana Dors, Marilyn, Pamela Lee, Grace Kelly....anyone blonde really.... Wimbledon cheque guarantee cards Marks and Spencer, Sainsbury's, and Tesco The ES Evening Standard supplement every Friday cafes (pronounced caff) Soho XFM listening to Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant on a Sat. afternoon cricket on the weekends SMALL mobiles News of the World being able to buy ANYTHING from a corner shop, which is always just down the road the fact that I didn't need a winter coat for 8 years! mini cabs able to pick you up in 5 minutes GOOOD TELLY!!!!!!!!! Sylvester the Cat playing guitar in the tube being able to buy all my groceries--including beer--for about 30 quid the feeling of a pound coin in your hand how I worked with people from all over the world in one office being the only American wherever I worked Soccer AM and Tim's catwalk strut cheeky adverts an overdraft Pret a Manger's Yoga Bunny drink Benjys Kelly's pate sandwiches for 80p HEAT magazine Discount Designer store in the Trocadero Portobello Road market fruit and veg stands Superdrug!!!

Being called "love" by cabbies, off-license workers, and aged men selling the ES Reading Loaded on the tube Being able to do SO MUCH in a day, going from Wimbledon to Camden with stops on the way, and make it home for dinner at 6 Running into so MANY famous people Having La Maison du Chocolate down the road from work, along with The Ritz, Fortnum & Mason, Bond Street, and the Japanese Centre at Piccadilly (good cheap sushi BTW in the lower level for take-away) Saying Take-away instead of carry-out Speaking the ENGLISH LANGUAGE (yes fellow Americans, we speak "American", not English!), though I do still say lift, loo, wanker, arse, bollocks, bugger, nick, chat(ted) up, bloody (and bloody buggery bollocks collectively)....oh I could go on...
Am I bovvered? Am I bovvered though? Do I look bovvered??

My Interests

I made this music playlist at MyFlashFetish .com.

Martial Arts...obviously.
I've studied: Aikido, Sho Rin Ryu Karate, Kickboxing, Krav Maga, weapons training and Bo, Jizaikan Aiki-Ninjutsu (currently).
Languages--currently *trying* to study Japanese, have studied French and can survive. I have studied a little Mandarin, Vietnamese, and Italian, though I can only remember bits of Mandarin. Will eventually learn Spanish so I can watch the trashy soap operas!
I love sushi and sashimi, and all Asian food in general.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!! Caviar and pate, but I won't eat foie gras or veal because of how the animals are treated.
I can play guitar, drums, piano...though it's been a long time I've played any of them.
I love London and lived there for quite a few years.
I love animals and won't wear fur, and prefer vinyl and rubber to leather. My mum keeps buying me leather coats! I am a supporter of PETA, but I'm not psycho in that I won't throw paint on someone with a fur...as wrong as it is to wear it, it may have taken that person YEARS to save up and buy that coat, who am I to ruin it. I will talk loudly about how big the person's ass looks in fur though!!!

I'd like to meet:

SIMON PEGG!!!! Ohhh, sexy...

Music:

Which Pulp Album Are You?
This is Hardcore (1998) A Pulp masterpiece. You are the last release on album. Well polished and expensive, you are a culmination of years of hard work leading to success, with a twist of disallusion associated with modern life. Your obsession with pornography and starring in film might get you in trouble, but don't let that stop you from being your sweet sexy self.
