Sophie Duncan has recently returned from the street with two sex shops, two churches, a dodgy Norwegian deli and The Obama Carwash to the rural idyll in which she spent her formative years. She still aspires to be just about everything and she still has two degrees.
Sophie Duncan is in fact back amongst the dreaming spires, having left the rural idyll of her childhood for another quasi-rural idyll beside a large flood plain and next to a graveyard the aforementioned street with two churches, two mosques, the Obama carwash and also, now, a flasher.
The dodgy Norwegian deli has closed.
She still has two degrees, but is getting a third. Good.
Also, now she’s a lecturer.


You left a comment on the Queer Eye Candy wondering if all the commenters know each other.. some of us do, sort of. I know roxy, of course, she and I are long distance lovers. Sinclair I know through his blog and through email correspondence and twitter. Ditto for Tina, Panthera Pardus, Essin’ Em and Greg.. just a big happy bloggin, twitterin family I guess
Thanks for your comments on the pictures

I love your site. Keep it up !
Thank you!
I found your information re Sir George Alexander very interesting as my grandmother was his half sister. My grandmother had kept various pieces of memorabilia, which I have. I did not know about Hugh Laurie being related to Sir George, but I will look at my family Bible that has our family tree to work out if this is correct.
Thank you so much for commenting! I’d be fascinated to hear more about what you discover. What memorabilia do you have? Please do drop me an email if you’d prefer.
