“I think the atmosphere of Brighton and its vintage scene have helped develop who I am today. I remember my mum and dad’s tales of life in 40s and 50s Britain, the music they listened to, what they wore and how they passed their time and thinking how exciting it all sounded!
I think having grown up in a household with such links to those eras; even the jokes about my mum’s ‘war time cooking’, have just evolved into something I choose to live.

I can’t imagine any other way to be its just daily living and part of our lives!”
