Influences: every so often i am goingto theme the page...cos as those who are or have previously been paying attention to my other profile page will know......i like themes.......its keeps things simple when you are as eccentric as I am and as into such a diverse plethora of things......cos it wouldnt fit otherwise........
So for now and to start this profile in style i have decided to stick to all things British....mainly because this is where i live......and where my local scene is......the one i REALLy want to influence.......world domination starts witha single step.........So here you will be seeing all things Brittish and perhaps more particularly londonite....that inspire me and im sure also all the brits that will be soon appearing in focus on this page.......later things will shift and who knows to where...it could be a country or a style or a genre or whatever......ideas for future "special features" are welcome.
