Name - Twinkle Lemora
Birthday -
14th July
Weight - Don’t know exactly but it’s evidently way too low.

How would you describe yourself? - A complete and utter fucking liability
with an over developed sense of the melodramatic.
Do you care about how you are perceived? - No
What was your most embarrassing experience? - Every time I open my mouth
I cause trouble, there’s too many to mention.
What was your most frightening experience? - Being mugged on a central
line train at 4pm on a Bank Holiday Monday. And no fucker did anything to stop
it or help me.
What do you most like? - Sleep, solitude, Lemora, the company of my closest
friends.
What do you most dislike? - Arrogance, bigotry, smelly people, morning.
Meeting arrogant, bigoted people who smell in the morning. Being lost for words
in critical situations. The fact that I seem to have developed a stutter of
late. Marmite, Peanut butter, cashpoints no longer dispensing fivers, corked red
wine, money, waking up, Tottenham losing.
What do you find most annoying? - The fact there is always so much month
left at the end of the money, but generally it’s the same as my ‘dislike’
answer.
What newspapers do you read? - Metro and Evening Standard, if at all.
How would you describe yourself politically? - I’m not politically
minded. Too many of my own problems to sort out.
What qualities do you look for in the opposite sex? - Patience, similar
tastes, similar sense of humour, unpredictability, creativity. But definitely
patience.
What’s your sexual fetish? - Honestly don’t have one. Sex is a turn off,
I prefer people with their clothes on.
Who do you fancy? - Johnny Depp, Angelina Jolie, Neil Carlill, Jeff
Buckley, one or two nameless individuals who front gothic type bands. Fiona
Allen from ‘Smack the Pony’. Johnny Knoxville, Pete Burns back in the 80’s, not
the Fraggle he is now.
Do you believe in God? - Nope
Do you believe in life after death? - Kind of, at least I believe there
is something like a spiritual world, unrelated to what any religion attempts to
define.

If you found a wallet stuffed with fifty pound notes, would you hand it in? -
Depends on my mood, current financial situation and if anyone saw me picking it
up. The way I feel right now I’d say no, fuck ‘em. Their loss. I’ve lost plenty
of thing which has lead to others gaining, why can’t I have the same?
If you could give anyone any advice at all, what would it be? - Cross
your t’s, dot your i’s, and always have a bloody good excuse to hand.
