Everyone else thinks I'm gay, but I'm not.
About Me
- Louche
- London, United Kingdom
- Tall, slightly too well dressed and in command of some excellent brogues. I'm a fop, a dandy, a cad and a rake. Often tempted, rarely accused, never caught. When faced with trouble I always ask myself 'What would Flashman do?'

I love mechanical watches!
*lusts*
Yeah, it's well skill even if it is going to take me a while to get used to having to wind something up.
Tres Louche!
And when the world goes all to hell and one can no longer get watch batteries, you will be the only one able to tell what time it is
