Profile

An assortment of infrequent ramblings of my boring lifestyle. I tend to read my friends entries and comment on those rather than write in my own live journal. It also records my fandom loves. And gives me the opportunity to express myself with more likeminded people.
Unless something drastic happens my LJ is unlocked.
My passions are in no specific order:-

Pirates of the Caribbean.
Sparrington pairing.
Love Johnny Depp's Jack Sparrow and Jack Davenport's Commodore James Norrington.
Such opposites and you know what the old saying is, I feel it fits perfectly well with these two.
I blame a close friend for this and my reinterest in The Professionals. Yes well you did warn me, and still I took no notice, I don't regret a minute of it :)

The Professionals.
Although a fan of the series in childhood, I didn't come to this fandom till this year. Of course the pairing of Bodie and Doyle interests me.
Was a Martin Shaw fan when I was younger, used to collect pics etc of him which I used to keep in a "Terry's All Gold" box, and am a Doyle girl in the fandom too. Just sorry I didn't get interested in the fandom earlier.

Sherlock Holmes (Jeremy Brett).
A brilliant actor with a wonderful voice. Velvet like.
His Holmes character was fantastic. The best interpretation as far as I am concerned
Loved him in a little play called "Prodigal Daughter".
Wonderful singing voice, sadly missed.

Sapphire and Steel (David McCallum).
Love the character of Steel, especially when paired of with Silver, a very very small fandom, probably myself and [info]nakeisha are the only ones who write this pairing.

Man from Uncle (David McCallum).
Great actor, aged very well. and his character was superb.
As Illya Kuryakin in MfU, Russian partner of Napoleon Solo. Gave Napoleon a run for his money.


Torchwood/Doctor Who.(John Barrowman).
Loved Captain Jack Harkness when I got into Doctor Who during the first Christmas special with David Tennant. Watched the Christopher Eccleston eps and came across Captain Jack in the Empty Child, and then of course it all came from that. Watched him in Torchwood where his character is fleshed out, but its always the Empty Child which is my all time favourite ep.

Harry Potter (Alan Rickman)
Love his portrayal of Severus Snape, again another actor with a delicious velvet like voice, much like Jeremy Brett. Generally I like Snape/Harry pairing, but will read other Snape pairings too.

I write fan fiction, and some times draw fandom characters, but at the moment these are irregular activities.

Other interests are Genealogy, which I am hoping to make as a profession and an interest in History, both in costume and architecture of tudor periods and Victorian. I have a particular love of Georgian architecture.
