Wonderful, occasionally auto-inflammatory fuckwit, too busy to read this column, sought by questionable use of human space for frequent derangement and regular charm. I have enough people in my life to be getting on with, I just wish to memorialize my doomed love of this woman in a way that will terminally embarrass me and probably her should she ever come across it. But if you like an overwhelming challenge, and small cats, email this charming non-starter, actually not drunk when she placed this advert.
