Your Story:
They say that everyone needs a 'third place'. You have home which is one, work which is another and your third place should ideally be something entirely separate from the first two things. Roller Derby is my third place. Roller Derby soothes my soul. And I would say to anyone thinking of trying it, come. I stalked the Blitz Dames for two years before I plucked up the courage to go to an induction which was silly because it's the most amazing thing I've ever done. But, as Superoxide once said to me, "I'd have been better off taking up crack cocaine, because it's cheaper and far less addictive."

Likes:
Being a silversmith, baby grammar, 'Orlando', rocking horses, having no TV, ladybirds, Radio 4, Bugsy Malone, clouds, my entire family including the dog and Bruised Martinis.

Dislikes:
People who run over hedgehogs, the dearth of women in politics and disappointing restaurant food.
