Helen

Hi! My name's Helen and I live near Grimsby with my 2 murderous cats who love bringing me headless presents.
In my spare time I raid car boot sales and vintage shops to find pre-loved clothes which I can customise and either keep or sell in my ebay shop. The shop is closed for the moment til I get more time to list some stock... got a whole spare room full of things to get selling in the new year :)
I'm a big fan of burlesque performances and love the whole retro/rockabilly scene. I've been getting a small collection of tattoos lately as well, which is not good for the bank balance!
I've been experimenting a lot with my camera recently too, I take it everywhere with me and some of the results are in my photo albums, there's more on my website here: Metal Monkey Photography.
Oh, and I need a new job, I've been a microbiologist for 14 years now and I really need something more exciting, preferably to do with music, photography or alternative fashion of some sort.
