I love animals and have faithfully served cats and dogs in my time. 

 

Fast fashion isn't my thing.  I have long been a slow fashion devotee.  My home and personal style can best be described as "eclectic."  I prefer vintage and preloved items that come with a little history and enjoy the challenge of putting together outfits that not everyone will be wearing. 

 

I'm also passionate about nature and am lucky enough to live in an area with beautifully diverse scenery here in the West Midlands, so my exercise regime is taking long walks and discovering new places - always carrying my camera. 

 

I like historic, characterful buildings and young at heart people.  Music gigs, films, gritty crime novels, art and writing (I blog and dabble in poetry) also consume my time.   

​

I've worked as a Filming Assistant at the Black Country Living Museum and undertook stints on the Sky production, The Colour Room and Season 6 of the BBC drama Peaky Blinders.

 

I love to laugh.  It really is the best form of medicine.  I'm attracted to dark, surreal, leftfield comedy and have visited the Edinburgh Fringe Festival numerous times in the past.

​

What else can I tell you? 

I'm a wife, daughter, mother.  I'm 38% English, 31% Irish, Scottish & Welsh and 31% Scandi.  Bet you didn't expect that level of detail!

Halloween is my favourite time of year.  I'm into folklore and the paranormal, having had my own unexplained experience early in life.

Sean of the Dead and Withnail & I are amongst my favourite films.  I also have a bit of a love affair with 70s Hollywood.

I have an irrational fear of balloons.  

I love chocolate; I'm particularly partial to Bendicks mints.

I feel at my most relaxed by water, preferably the coast, but a river, lake or canal will suffice. 

I'm probably happiest when amongst a crowd of people at a music gig.  My music taste is pretty eclectic too, ranging from Fleetwood Mac to Fontaines DC!  I gravitate towards creatives, poetic souls and dark humour.
