About Me

Urgh this is always a tricky thing, don’t you think? ‘About Me’. Where are you supposed to start??

About my first day at school? The teacher was nice but the free milk – eek showing my age! – was off.

About the first record I bought? Elvis’s in The Ghetto. No, it was second-hand, I’m not that old!

About my favourite ever gig? Tricky – it’s a toss-up between The Damned at the Glasgow Barrowlands (we went to that instead of going to our school prom, bad children!) and the very first, and very amazing, Stone Roses gig, at The Venue venue, in Edinburgh. Oh and Goldfrapp! somewhere. ‘Frankenstein would want your mind, your lovely head…’ That is simply one of the most romantic lines EVER written. Swoon.

About my first boyfriend? He knows who he is. Ha. 

About my hobbies? Dunno. I have loads, I guess. Or can my life be a hobby?

About my family? They are a little bit crazy, and I love them madly.

About my adopted brother? He is a bit of a miracle, and I love him madly. 

About my best friend? I have two, they are called Max and Mel. They are really great and I love them madly.

About my child? He is a natively bilingual, digitally native, pesky little rat. And he is also the eighth wonder of the world, of course. And I love … etc. 

About … right, that’s enough. 

Tell me about you!
