My Self-Summary

I like to talk and I like to listen and I like to help and I like to take pictures. Cooking is something that I like to do a lot, and pretending that I know how it works and not ever cooking the same thing twice if I have a party. I like to make things out of paper or cloth.

I'm mostly harmless, but I've got a lot of brutal honesty, so be warned. I'm dead keen on art. I'm a pretty busy person, but I can usually fit new things in.

What I like most of all is meeting new people.

What I’m doing with my life

I'm a photographer and a student of photography as well. I also work for a magazine and teach a bit. I'm doing a lot of freelance curation lately and I've started working on a few radio projects. I like to be busy.

Sometimes I have spare time and I fill that with music and guitar and looking for antiques and seeing art galleries and meeting odd people and eating.

I’m really good at

Hum, this is a tricky one. I'm quite ok at making a plate of food look edible. And I can take quite reasonable photographs. Oh, and I spot mistakes in books all the time. I'm good at diplomacy and being tactful. I like understatements and giving my two-penneth.

The first things people usually notice about me

"What amazing shoes!"
"I like your waistcoat"
"Those're pretty dapper trousers"
"White gloves?! Who wears white gloves?!"

I like to dress properly. Not always, but a lot of the time.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

The Road
Withnail and I
Damien Rice or Iron and Wine
Feta cheese and raspberries, but not together.

The six things I could never do without

My camera
My shirts
My guitar
My saucepans
My family
My friends

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Well, the nature of things and people. And sometimes I wonder about where we're headed. Other times I'm thinking about where my next meeting is and who it's with or what I'm supposed to be finishing or starting.
Sometimes though, I just wonder about what I will eat for my dinner, and then I'll think up some sort of elaborate scheme to do something pointless.

On a typical Friday night I am

At somebody's house holding forth, or cooking something ambitious/disastrous. Actually, no, what a fool, I'm at work on a Friday night! I'm one of those people that everyone hates - I take pictures in a nightclub! But I do dress smartly and I don't thrust cameras at people, I only pap people who want to be papped, so I'm alright really.
UPDATE: I used to dress properly, but I've changed companies and the beasts want to brand me. I asked for a logo to sew onto my waistcoat, but they were having none of it.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

This one time, I ate a beer coaster for money. Pretty awful. On the plus side, I have my own theme music.

You should message me if

I suppose you should if you liked something you saw, it would only be good manners. I always, always want to chat to just about everyone.
Or if you just want somebody interesting to talk to, who can spell and never says 'bbz' or 'darlin'. Ta-ta for now. x
