ABOUT ME
I was born in London and I work in the theatre. I think it's good that this site exists, and that it gives people the chance to offer old fashioned hospitality.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I once saw a huge storm blow in from the sea while we were on the cliffs. When it hit, we had to take cover under a small plastic tarpaulin. It was freezing and wet. A man we were with started singing old songs I'd never heard before. I was amazed by the simple power of his voice against the storm.
