I grew up in Scotland, but live in London now. I got married in Stockholm this summer, and have also met the Swedish actor Krister Henriksson, although not at the same time :)

I try to enrich my community through working in museums. I studied biology and love the outdoors and wildlife. While studying I was abused by a male student in a house share and got PTSD as a result, but I still managed to finish my PhD. I trained to be a teacher but had to give it up after 5 years due to mental health problems relating to the PTSD.  I was homeless for a while but I've nearly finished decorating my flat and have done the work myself with help from my family. I've just started dating someone who I met ten years or so ago and we got in touch again recently. He's a lovely guy. Hopefully home, work and love will all come together now. Great to hear from everyone.

My story is long and rather depressing at times, it's been a bumpy ride but my love for things like MLPs have kept me going through it all.

Today I'm a film historian - I restore silent comedies and research the history of a forgotten comedian from the era.
I live in a large old house in the country together with my hubby and my little critters : 4 bunnies and a macaw.
The gloomy side is 15 years of health problems -- chronic migraines and I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism a few years back after being seriously ill for several years. I didn't get treatment in time and still try very hard to repair the damages. It is not easy !

Apart from G1 MLPs I collect, Popples, Rainbow Brite, 80s Barbies of choice, Strawberry Shortcake, She-Ra, Jem..love Punky Brewster and 80s movies. You know -- fun, carefree colorful stuff.
I fill my house with antiques - the place looks like a 1920s jazz age flapper fabulous time capsule, and I wear a lot of vintage - mainly early 30s..love Pre Code 30s movies !!

I'm also vegetarian and quit wheat and it's done wonders - never touching that stuff again. I'm very health conscious - it's important. I want to collect ponies for as long as possible, lol  :biggrin:
What else..I just unboxed part of my MLP collection for cleaning and my bathroom is full of dirty Popples in need of a bath - yup, moving sucks !
Yeah..and I love rainbow hair. First time I dyed my hair pink was in 1986 - I was 9. Not very usual back then. I blame it on ponies  :happy:

° I collect not only MLP, but also; Puppy in My Pocket, Barbie (80/early 90's), Kinder Egg figurines and other toys I grew up with. (Late 80's/early 90's.)

° I'm kind of obsessed with American culture.. My favorite city in the world is San Francisco.

° I'm a tech nerd who gets excited about computers, cellphones and cameras.

° I'm a former TV junkie who still sees myself as a fangirl but fewer shows on my list.
