Name: Jo Thomas
a.k.a. JT, Foghorn, The13thValkyrie, Jorunn Bloodaxe, DeathsAngel, Xena, Zorro,
Age: immortal... it's part of being a valkyrie.
Height: 5'8", unless I'm wearing the 3 inch heels.
Hair/Eyes: both originally brown, the hair now varies from dark red through to light brown.
Distinguishing features: many earings, one eyebrow ring, one navel ring, manic grin, loud voice.
Current mission: as of September, an MSc In Mineral Deposit Evaluation at Imperial College.
(Explanation for Geology Virgins: if the degree I've just finished was "Oh look it's a rock", then this is "oh look it's a rock... and it has some gold/diamonds/copper etc. in it". Okay?)
Likes: booze (brandy sours especially), blokes (okay, one in particular), chocolate, bikes, sci-fi, loud music, fencing, Arsenal FC, Bath RFC, the Green Bay Packers,... but not always in that order!!
Dislikes: EXAMS, Tottenham Hotspur FC, Gloucester RFC, losing at N64 deathmatches, my feet, running out of mayo, mapping projects
Hmmm... I guess you want a little more... oh okay then, just this once.
I was born at an early age to parents... and as far as I can make out, that was the last time I was normal or conventional.
Having spent most of my life living in a small town in the Bermuda Triangle of Gloucestershire, I have just spent three years at Portsmouth terrorising the local population and getting an honours degree in Geology. For current activities, see above.
Why Geology?... errr... it's kind of strange really... I've just always liked the plate tectonics/volcanoes/earthquakes stuff,
and hey... it was that or an Art degree, and I know which one I prefer! Also... what other degree gives you the chance to spend large
chunks of weekend and holiday away in caravans or hotels, out all day getting, wet, muddy, cold, tired, bruised, cut off by the tides, sunburned, windburned, attacked by bogs and
singing Brittany Spears songs(don't ask)?!?! No really, it's a laugh, and one day when I sort out some photos for this site, I might just put a few ones from
fieldwork on here.
Fencing? hey, I get to run around with a sword!!!
