NUTSHELL

A recent graduate and long term layabout in Leicester, Englandshire. A (wrong side of) twenty-something. An only child (woe!). British, ridiculously patriotic (Long Live The Queen, The Beeb and the humble Cuppa Tea). Mixed race and incredibly proud of it. An INFJ and a 4w5, if you go in for that sort of thing, which I do. A girl, in case it wasn't immediately obvious.

FRIENDS POLICY

To combat my constant and paranoiac fear that information contained in this journal will leak out into the public domain, offend all that read it and incriminate me in terrible crimes against various personal relationships, I've semi-locked it. Anything remotely noteworthy requires a friend request. You can leave me a comment here if you're the friendly sort and I haven't scared you off. I add most people - those that I don't, it's probably because I'M SAYING REALLY NASTY THINGS BEHIND YOUR BACK OMG.


C R E D I T S

Gossymer is responsible for all coding overrides in this journal, I just fiddled with them a little.
Header images are mine, all polished screencaps from Being Human; a lovely little English drama-comedy thingy about a vampire, a ghost and a werewolf. They're on a random image rotation and will refresh when the script feels like it when you do.
