Liz.

Quotes from the corridor.


For some reason, Liz cannot be captured by photograph, though she seems to have a magnetic-style attraction to video. To date, there are over a thousand hours of film of her. No matter who used the camera, the result was always the same. She would be the focus of the shot. It's a mystery, really (as are her actions whilst on film).

That aside, as a person, Liz has a terrible affliction. If you give her a pint glass, she will be unable to keep it in her hands for very long. No matter what the liquid is, it will end up being spilt somewhere (or over somebody). She once had to decline an invitation to one of the Ambassador's parties for this very reason. Poor love. And he really spoils you as well.

Liz's ambition is to shrink herself down to the size of a microbe, and spend 29 months (no more, no less) travelling around on peoples' hair. She claims this is really the only way to travel the world. I don't know about that, but I do know that her Northern Charm will allow this dream to one day become a reality. The only problem is the prohibitive fact that, in this state, she will only be able to eat mango chutney, and in some cultures, it's FORBIDDEN. Also, she can't fry an egg (guess who did it for her? Muggins here. That's right. Me.).

She shares a room with Ellen, and together they indulge their mutual hobby of recreating the TV series The Odd Couple.


Ellen.

Quotes from the corridor.


Ellen is perhaps the shortest person on the corridor. To use the oven, she has to suspend herself from the ceiling in a way akin to that bit in Mission: Impossible with Lord Tom of Cruisely. But that doesn't mean she's a bad person. Not that anyway...

Ellen watches lots of films, but I'm not one to criticise that sort of behaviour. It would be pure hypocrisy if I did. Her music tastes range from The Collected hits of Matt Munroe, to My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult. Such an eclectic and varied musical taste leads to tension in their shared room, as Liz is a big old fan of Jose Feliciano and James Taylor. But they cope, as we all have to do when faced with adversity.

Ellen has decided to be a representative for the UN, to the small country which most people don't know is part of the United Kingdom, Derwent. She at the moment is undergoing much social study of the place, and is trying to find the best way to approach the notion of making her the Queen of the small nation. Her stories of their unusual cultural differences and distinctive tastes in food, drink, and music, entertain us all regularly.

Her favourite hobby is Calligraphy. She spends hours writing essays in this scripting style, and enjoys the results of her lecturers asking what the words say. She is also the lead singer in the Goth band "Bwraaaaghhhh", and is lobbying to have elected the first ever hermaphrodite Minister for Drums and Yoghurt. An important issue, I think we all agree.


 That's your lot here.
