Coffee!

About Me

I was considering writing this bit in third person, but then realised how daft that would be! About me....well, I'm a twin. I love to draw (have an illustration degree), and am a huge fan of computer games. I visit the cinema weekly (though I think my expectations are far too high, as I rarely see a good film), I like to exercise - either by lotsa walking, cycling, or going to karate (Shotokan is the best, c'mon!). I love the theatre, though the ticket prices don't love me! But my truest, deepest love, is drinking coffee. Starbucks is my usual habitat, but you'll find special coffee in lovely, olde worlde style pubs, and even in the Vatican!
