Two weeks after receiving the email, I've decided to finally share with you, the third installment of Blogs j'adore! As soon as Sophie's name appeared under 'followers', I was instantly captivated by her blog. Named after one of my favorite Zeppelin tunes, and always quoting an awesome number, each post bubbles over with sensational icons -- usually dating from the 60's and adorned with stylish get-ups. As one of the handful of bloggers I can't wait to virtually visit, Sophie was a given choice for numéro trois. Now enjoy her titillating answers, most of which could have come from my own mouth! It truly is a Living Reflection of a Dream, xo.

One deceased person you'd love to have a drink with: Janis Joplin
That person in three words: Brilliant, beautiful, missed.
Last album you listened to in it's entirety (Title, artist, year of release): Revolver - The Beatles, 1966.
Favorite quote: "I only swear at people I love… so fuck off, all of you!"- Pete Townshend
Have you ever been to the US? If so, what did you think? Unfortunately I have never been to the US but it is on my list of places to visit. You two major cities I want to visit and they are San Francisco and New York. I'm in love with both cities. I will go there one day. I would also love to visit Graceland and see the Grand Canyon. I sound like the ultimate tourist don't I?
What do you love about the UK? Tricky question. I've lived in the UK all my life and because of that, you do take for granted the things you have access too. I suppose what I most love and am proud of is the history we have here, both musically and our own history e.g. wars, kings, queens et. cetera. The music aspect, well, I could waffle on for days. We gave the world The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd....and so on. I could go on and on. I like knowing that we have such great talent in this country and produced such fantastic music all those years ago.

Secondly, the actual history of Britain is fascinating. I'm a history buff and do read a lot of history books but British history is an area I keep coming back to. We have over 2,000 years worth of history and it's so vibrant, exciting and interesting. It's very easy to get lost within it all.
