I've never posted my picture anywhere. Nobody knows what I look like. Not even me. I may be a horrid creature, disfigured and slightly greenish. I may have a face like an old shoe. I may even look a little like Tom Selleck. There's a lace veil of mystery around me, and I love it.

Oh. It's difficult being in the Tardis, because I'm always getting time dimensions mixed up...

Doctor Who is terrible (to me anyhow), so you're not missing anything there.
Don't get frustrated by it, embrace it. I know I do. Most of my
friends know I am weird and don't watch or listen to the same things as
they do.
Individuals go places.

Hmm, yeah, places like the funny farm, I'd imagine... 
No, really, you are quite right of course. I like being a harmless eccentric, but it's more fun if you can share it!

There must be a right answer to this question, but I can't quite make up my mind which it is...

I was referring to James wanting to know what all Magma fans look like. especially ones of the other gender, I'd imagine

Ah "Share It", a great Canterbury tune. Yes, I wish I had real-life people to share my musical obsessions with. My mate Dave is the closest I can get, 'cause he likes film scores and classical music, as well as some metal.

| No, is the correct answer. I've seen enough photos of Mike already!  
Anyhow, this has gone way off topic.

James knows all, sees all... 
I wish! I just like to know what Magma fans look like, I'm nosey. I mean, I know what Steve Davis and Antoine de Caunes look like already and it's pleasing to know you look like neither of them.

Hehe, thanks! If I didn't have to look somewhat normal for work, it'd probably be all kinds of sky-blue-pink, but I will stick with red for now...

Excellent! Generic hair is boring. You go for it.

So you want to look like this?  Fine!  "Harry is a lumberjack and he's okay..." Great photo, Melissa. Of course, I've visited your blog, so I knew what you looked like already.  The red hair is looking good, by the way.

Grudge or Grunge?   I might actually try to get a better pic of me next time with a girl I actually know better, I actually kinda cringe whenever I see that pic, cos of how stupid I look there. I've been wearing flannel shirts for years now, but I was never really into grunge though (Don't like Nirvana at all  ), I just like the feel and look of flannel really.

Harry, you look like a dude from the 90's there in your pic, grunge era.
