Oh, so you want my life story do-ya??
OK, just the interesting bits then - but everything's interesting to me *sigh*

My real name is Laura.
I'm 5'6ish" tall with long brown curly hair which has a mind of its own, grey eyes, very pale skin and freckles. I'm 30 years old, but I look a lot younger - most people guess my age at around 22-23. I'm not a snappy dresser by any means - I'm a bit scruffy really!
I live in Hoxton, which is in the borough of Hackney, London. The video for 'Bitter Sweet Symphony' by The Verve was filmed nearby. Damian Hirst, the artist, used to live around the corner, as did Jarvis Cocker of Pulp. I grew up in the country, and my family were poor. I don't like living in London. I am a socialist and a trade union activist. I'm vegetarian.

I live with my bf of 10 years. I have a lodger. I also share my flat with my beautiful little budgie. I play guitar, although am very rusty. I have wonderful parents, and a very intelligent and talented younger brother.
I have a bachelors degree (History/Archaeology) - which I studied for in the evenings after work. I love archaeology - also photography, art, music, theatre, film.

I am a civil servant in the newly formed Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA - or deathrow as the inmates affectionately call it). I deal with animal health (cattle).

Ooh, I'd better stop there!
About others:

Melusine loves hamsters and rabbits
Ramon shares my fascination with penguins

JJ almost always has a joke to tell

OT. Yorick, is that right that Stealthy is gonna be a dad?? Woohoo! Congrats Mike and Marnie!! They must be over the moon!
