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?'
