Attempting to tie my hair up without it escaping. I always fail, but I persist like a trooper.
Comedy gigs, music, books, films...easily entertained! Going out for meals, hanging around in pubs with friends.
I LOVE MARMITE.
Anyone who wants to send me homemade things through the post. Getting post is ace, and knitted things are good because I can't knit. Very good at frogging though...
