Things I love to listen to...
Bjork, Massive Attack, Morcheeba, Jill Scott, seem to be playing Badly Drawn Boy's
Don't forget to Feed the Fish quite a lot at the moment, though I'll probably overdose on it soon, also seem to have gone off bands, being less fanatically devoted to a particular few artists and more open to different sounds and singles.
Crazy in Love, Always on Time, Scandalous, Survivor etc.

Smallville (Chris got me into this!), Ray Mears (Not quite sure why), Buffy, most films (I can quite happily sit through crap, I just love going to the movies! sucker...) Il Postino, The Vanishing (not sure I'd say I enjoyed it, is was very disturbing), Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Vertigo, North by Northwest, Donnie Darko, Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid, The Mission, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang...

Together with Chris, I developed Snog London, wanting to create a site specifically for Londoners rather than a humdrum generic, nationwide site. I worked for several years as Online Services Manager for the UK's leading tv & film online recruitment service www.productionbase.co.uk before setting up blue compass ltd with Chris in November 2003.
If you have any suggestions about how to improve the site or any questions about how the site works, please drop me a line:
