Hello from Lucretia

1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)
I am currently a stay at home mother so spend most of my time looking after my baby boy, shall sadly be returning to work soon though.
My hobbies include music, socialising, attending goth festivals, sewing and cooking!

2. Where are you from?
I was born in Cheshire, England but now sadly live in Birmingham.

3. Who is your favorite author?
Emily Brontė

4. What are your favorite films?
I honestly could not name one. I rarely watch movies and even the ones I have I would find it hard to pick a favourite from...
I like anything historical however, especially Medieval and Victorian periods.

5. What music do you want played at your wedding?
Good question!
Not "Goth" , however there is a song called "Flames" by VAST which I think is just beautiful. I am torn between that and "Like a child again" by The Mission.

6. At your funeral?
I do not plan on dying any time too soon, so I could not tell you

7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?
Die? I want to be immortal of course! As you said this IS a gothic website

8. What kind of casket would you want?
Any which is lined in purple velvet.

9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?
At the moment I am in love with my new Louise Black corset. Its underbust black and white striped with a ribcage cameo. That corset with a petticoat and ball skirt looks lovely.

10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?
Not having any worries at all!

11. What's your favorite band?
The Cure

12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?
I am qualified as a Make up artist, however my fiance is studying a degree in computer science, we are hoping to start up a business from home, enabling us to stay with our son.

13. Why did you join?
As I stumbled across this site and thought I would see what it has to offer.

14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender?
Female, at least last time I checked

Allow me to welcome you, milady Lucretia! You appear to exhibit good manners and tastes somewhat reflective of my own. I do hope you enjoy your stay. *doffs hat and grins*

Good afternoon to you,

I have just searched for a picture of your corset and I am now sitting here with a tinge of jealousy. I know how you feel about Birmingham having lived so close to it for many years.

Hello and welcome, you seem very nice, stick around.

Also, Birmingham is great, all lot of very good bands came from there, Godflesh, Napalm Death, GBH, Jesu, Head Of David, Fall of Because.

Ok, maybe most of those are associated with Godflesh, but still, a city I would love to visit.

Thanks again.

I know I am new here, however I just made the mistake of opening a thread thinking it was just by a troll, and that there would be nothing, if a few words there.

However I was greeted by pornographic images of the most disgusting (at least to myself) kind. Involving someones faeces. Not something a lady wishes to see, especially just after eating her dinner!

May I ask if this happens often here? As there were floods and floods of posts by the same person which I assume were full of more of the same.
I am now feeling rather sick!

I have tried reporting such posts to the admins, and I'm sure others have done the same, but they seem to have completely disappeared from the site as nothing has been done.

What's really weird is about a month ago, someone managed to hack my account on here, to where they advertised pills as 'me'. I had to change my password...but still...that was scary.

Too bad she's not making them anymore unless you've got a lot of bread and you can help with her gazillion backorders. :P

And what makeup counters have you worked at?

Yes, well I had to wait about 8 weeks for mine however it was worth it as they are gorgeous :



And she is still making them , just in set sizes and with a slight price increase

Make up counters?
I do not work on make up counters hun! I do media and theatrical make up, and work freelance... Can think of nothing worse than working on a make up counter!

Erm last time I checked I knew exactly where I lived.

As if honeythorn ever goes to edwards number 8, or knows anyone on the goth scene here I am sure they will happily confirm...

I am starting to see now why the admins abandoned this forum...
