About Me

Oh for a muse of fire.....New to MySpace - still working it out......................................................... .My mission - to recruit as 'friends' the greatest heroes and sharpest minds in order to support my quest of a MYSPACE site that doesn't make me look like a turgid old technophobe from Minkerton. Can they help me? Will it rain again tomorrow? Can fresh local cheese and Lincoln Oat biscuits be bought at Skipton market on a Thursday? Do they have a market in Skipton on a Thursday? Keep returning to see who I have amassed in my quest. Onward fellow Thespians of Yore Onward! ............................................................ .................................................

My Interests

Film, Theatre, Strange and bizarre cars that I seem to collect over the years! Currently own a VW 183 Iltis - see pics. Specifically......Researching the work of playwright John Godber and Hull Truck Theatre Company for MPhil./ PhD. Fascinated by the work of screen and stage writer Tim Firth.

Me, in a paralell universe, IF I had taken up a place at Bournemouth Film School instead of going to Yorkshire to train as an actor surrounded by sheep and girls called 'Sheena'.
