hooray for bank hideaways!

About Me

My nickname is panda or a variety of panda like variations, mainly pandages, miss pandarella, pandarina or pandemonium, any of these will suffice! I mainly spend my time going to gigs, but when I do have some time I can be found robot dancing with various friends in a state of guinness and vodka inebriation in various drinking establishments in leeds and sometimes manchester. I'm working at the theatre which sounds lovey but luckily it's lovely. I also proofread and notetake for dyslexic students.

My Interests

music, going to gigs, fashion, reading, going out with friends, drinking lots of guinness, sometimes vodka, photography, buying books and magazines from magma, trying not to smoke, failing (at trying not to smoke, not in general), collecting vintage handbags and scarves, shopping.

I'd like to meet:

David Sue and other like minded pandages!
