I am a nerd. Getting that out there right now. I am a phd student, archaeologist, ancient historian, linguist and part-time teacher. I am stubborn, feisty, unpredictable, sarcastic, quirky, kooky, strong willed, independant, caring, loyal, loving, opinionated and very protective of those I love. I adore chocolate, rum, lace, Tarantino, Tim Burton, Gustav Klimt, rice pudding, steak, sparkly crochet hooks, fine merino yarn, getting lost, castles, Carol Ann Duffy, gangster movies, bad and cheesy movies, silver, kissing, dancing, climbing bell towers, elephants, peach tea, Marilyn Monroe, classic black and white movies, hot chocolate, Da Vinci, Van Gough, jewellery, daisies, tulips, the colour green, lemon mousse, Shakespeare, rock music, boots, cacti, Milton, Dante, Virginia Woolf, Oscar Wilde, Matisse, Picasso, long train journeys, Lord Byron, pasta travelling, tequila, Wendy Cope, frescos, holding hands, laughing, sunflowers and a hundred other things... I hate Donnie Darko, bread sauce, Royal Mail, people who wave lighters in the air at concerts, hey Jude, bigotry, cheats and cheating, liars and lying and cheap red wine.
