My first job was Working in a really grotty bar

My worst job was Same as the above!

Right before we perform I try and find my band

I know it’s going to be a good show when I find my band

While we perform I try to act normal/sing

Right after we perform I have a dark rum and ginger ale

The weirdest thing that’s ever happened during a show was when two lesbians had a punch up during Quicksand at a gig in Brighton

Shop at vintage

And read poems, sometimes. the warning labels on my packet of cigarettes as I light up.

If I’m at a super fun party I really hope I have I think you know the answer to that question…

My favorite topic for small talk is swine flu and how to dispose of Celine Dion

If I had a million dollars I would dispose of Celine Dion

If I was to be stuck on an island indefinitely I would need my iPod and something to un-stick me.

If I could only eat one thing for the rest of my life it would be sushi

Favorite gadget abacus/compass/sundial

You should know that I invented post-its
