Profile Information

Something Interesting About Me:: I'm in my early 30's, and have a passion for beautiful design. I have always had Mathmos Lava Lamps around the house and have recently begun to add to my collection (and become a little obsessed by them!)
Other passions are KISS, Kylie Minogue, Star Wars, Doctor Who, Comics.... Do I sound like a nerdy fangirl? Oh, I work in accounting. Must be.

Where I Live:: Leeds, UK

My First Lava Lamp was:: My first Lava Lamp was a Telstar in violet/red, which I bought when I was around 15 years old. I saved up all my birthday money to get it, and can confirm that it's still going strong aged 17 years. The legs are a little tarnished but the bottle is beautiful and clear.
