Barnaby Thornton
Personal Brief
Beyond the red tape and work desks of nine to five obligations, Barnaby itches for white noise and white wine. When his nose isn't found trapped in one of several shot glasses of tequila, or a bottle of Jack Daniels however, he might just settle for a green tea sat righteously upon your knee as he recites his favourite ABBA song over the beat of his liver’s death march.
In twenty-two years Barnaby’s taste for music has seen greater changes and expansion than Courtney Love’s Rhinoplaster with his face in between Paris Hilton’s clit-clink imprisoned thighs.
He thinks Joan Jett was really onto something when she sung “I love Rock N’ Roll” but isn’t afraid to be found dancing alongside the Jukebox to a bit of Kylie when his gold spangley hot pants are back from the dry cleaners. Variety is the spice of life, see, and Barnaby occasionally likes to write about it all in his spare time - A bit like Sarah Jessica-Parker but with an asymmetric haircut and a MySpace addiction instead of the incessant sex and that really crappy movie with Matthew McConaughey.
He can't stand pretension. He can't stand insincerity. He’s not lived an extraordinary life so far in Saaf London, but so long as it’s still filled with the sound of music, Barnaby couldn’t give a Lay-ee-odl-lay-ee-odl-oo about anything else.
