Extended, I have quite a large family, which is very important and invaluable to me. My relatives are spread throughout the globe on almost every continent!
But I was born and raised in London, England by Mum & Dad. With all my brothers and sisters being more than 12 years older than me and only two of them in this country (15 & 16 yrs older and Southhampton based), I had what you might call an unconventional only child up bringing.
Thusly . . .

So you want to get inside my head.
Don't even go there!
Hey I'm serious, pretty much everyone I know realises that it's not such a safe place to be, especially if you want to stay feasably sane.
(But then what is sane?)
I've been lost in the dream of making movies since I was about five. I watched Harold Lloyd (or was it Buster Keaton?), hanging from clock and realised that films could be as good as cartoons! Not because he was acting like a cartoon mouse, but because the character doing the stunts was a real human being, with complex emotions. And even as silly as a plot can get sometimes, if handled with the right balance, it can be a wonderful viewing experience. Drawing you into that other world for an hour and a half. Letting you lose your worries, and angst in that of the hero's.
In short, ESCAPISM.
Who needs to be Hudini,
when you've got food,
drink, vids & TV?!

This does however show my hair in it's various growing out states. =P
