About Me:
I'm a born and bred Londoner who wants to live in New York. I make cushions and linocuts and soup. Though not all at the same time, obviously.
I like going to museums late on a Friday evening, walks along the Thames foreshore, feeding ducks in Regent's Park, drinking cocktails in Soho, catching matinees at the Prince Charles cinema and browsing markets. Amongst tons of other things that I can neither be bothered nor have time to write about.

Who I Want to Meet:
Someone who can fund my jetset lifestyle and not want to tag along all the time. Unless you happen to be interested in the same things as me all the time.
Or even people who can't fund my jetset lifestyle, as long as they like the same kind of things I wrote about above.
But, don't expect me to add you as a friend just because we have something in common -- I'm only adding people I've actually met, or those I've known online for a couple of years. And if you want me to get to know you or respond to your messages, you have to make a bit more of an effort to let people know who you are!

months ago. Seven months ago, I commented
to her, "One can't just write a testimonial for
someone awesome like yourself, one has to
wait for inspiration." Well, it seems Inspiration
is just too cowed by Anna's awesomeness, and
can't come up with anything worthy. So let it
be known, Anna is too awesome for words.

she still rocks. The first Barbeloid I
met in real life! She also gave me a
testimonial for a flat I wanted. She
rocks. Yep.
Anna. She was working as a "coyote,"
helping poor bastards like me across
the border - poor bastards who didn't
know that the ignorance of an exchange
rate could mean a sticky, scaly death
at the jaws of slighty peckish Gila
Monsters. She led me expertly through
the abandoned tunnels of the Old City,
singing obscure seventies punk the
whole way, while often commenting, "do
Travis next. Do I smell yak lard?"
Ah, Anna. We salute you.

Like an acid drop.
All those sweet things that burst on
your tongue like electricity from a
battery.

heart. Actually - that's a killer
robot. Forget I mentioned Anything.
Anna would never dream of doing any
such thing. No, really.
