bugger this for a game of soldiers....

About Me

Charlie. British. Beard. Possible Hat. Probable Tie. Gin or Greyhound 50/50 at the moment. Designer. Apparently smell nice, which is a bonus. Brooklyn. 500 thread count minimum. Can't spell. Ponce. Food. Want a bloody huge American car. I like blue and wool and party fun, sauce (both kinds) and stripes. hello. ooh yeah, vino.

My Interests

Many and indeed varied. At the moment: Ceramics, Penguins, Eating, Drinking, Sundays, Laughing, Crashing my new beach cruiser again, Coffee + Brioche, Crosswords + Dyslexia (makes for fun and frustration...), Stripy and or checked long sleeve t-shirts, Dogs, Gin, Marmite, Dollar exchange rates, my friend Jeremy's new film, Shirts with ties, Designing lighting and houses and furniture and things that pop in to my head, physics, haircuts, ----facing (still don't understand jo), cooking nice food. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I was watching Cheers last night and Cliff was telling Woody what a freudian slip was;"Well woody, it's when you say one thing when your thinking of her mother." - - - - - - laughed so much i choked on some garlic bread. genius.

I'd like to meet:

You i suppose, are you nice? failing that. Anyone who wants to play Trivial Pursuit. - - - - - more people that want to go and see old films and lambchop. The band rather than the meat, though lambchops are nice, i think i might be straying off the point here. French people. People who are not afraid of boudan noir. People who want dessert even though they know they shouldn't. At least take a look, it won't hurt you and it might turn out to be a really nice creme brule.

Music:

Jam then Clash, then some Jam, some more Clash, then the Jam. Then the Clash. Oh and the Jam.

Movies:

Sometimes grownup stuff like the big sleep and La hene. But although this will fully trash my tough street image, my favourite film is When Harry met Sally.... Aaawww. Well, that and twelve angry men. And Zoolander. And Les Visiteurs. And Ferris Beulers Day Off.

Television:

Olympic Luge.

Books:

This week: a book about John Snow_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _This weeks word: Shambles

Heroes:

After watching the Actors Studio episode, i'll put Dave Chapelle here with Annika, Tony Benn and Suggs. I'll explain about the last one if you can be bothered.
