About Me

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Rose of green

I recently moved to Edinburgh (well really near in the country) I have a wonderful country cottage and still insist on wearing my normal clothes to garden in...besides PVC is wipe clean and I have black wellies with pink paw prints on them! I have a cat called Cobweb and a kitten called Bramble who are as cute as a lace covered button and a corn snake called Seth who attempts many devious escape plans! Sadly Lilith passed away after being hit by a car (our other cat fyi) I love vintage clothes and Hollywood idols of 20's, 30's,40's and 50's. I run a very small business called La Petit Mort that makes Rockabilly bags when I get time. I love dark humour like Black Books and enjoy a good laugh. I like to drink often and socialise on occasion but am not always the social butterfly I make myself out to be. I get tired and grumpy and sometimes would rather curl up with a good book and a cup of tea! I like to hug people who hug me back. I am not your mother and I don't expect you to be mine but if you're in trouble I'll work my ass off to help. I used to think I wanted to be everyones mum because I thought I had to be but I was wrong; I gave and didn't get and that sucks sometimes! I like real people, non-shit stirrers who don't want to try and fuck me up. I also hate the constant one upping game that's often played in public. You sound like you're complimenting me but my back is starting to itch from your knife. Thanks but no thanks. I don't like the way I look no matter what people close to me say and I'm not saying it for sympathy I state a fact! My partner rocks! He finds my top when I've thrown clothes around the bedroom for an hour, he comforts me even when I using all the swear words when something upsets me even when I say Cunt ( I dont swear at him tho)! He makes me tea whenever I look sad and we've never had an argument...I've tried!!! This caring long lasting relationship is still a shiny new thing but I want to keep it shiny and not have it turn out like everything else. I don't really know what everyone thinks of me and somedays I care and others I don't. At least I'm honest about it. So here I am being honest....

My Interests

Singing is my love and writing lyrics. Music, books, pvc, leather, shiny things, burlesque, the 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s..... boys, films, Pirates yyyaaarrrr!!!!huge great boots, Camden Shopping, Southern Comfort, cocktails, decadance, crafts etc etc

I'd like to meet:

Anyone with a dark sense of humour! People who have similar interests. I'm in a relationship and this will not change beacuse you email me! I'm happy to chat to anyone but know this: I fucking hate bands trying to add me when they dont wanna chat they just wanna use me to fucking advertise and this drives me nuts! If its a band similar to some bands listed below then try me but don't expect me to add you to up the numbers! I'll add you because I like your stuff! I would have liked to have met Jim Morrison. Johnny Depp...mmmn let me think about how that meeting would go :P Which type of '50s female are you?
You're a bad girl!

Lovely Ladies - Thank you

Ok, so I can come across brash, outspoken and confident but come close *beckons* it's all a lie! False bravado. I don't feel confident ever and the fact that I ever met men especially Jon is beyond me...
