I vividly remember being in my mid- to late-20s. That part of life is very emotional, and exciting, and dramatic in a way that your late 40s are not.

It's hard to find genuine 20s vintage in good condition, but it is out there. One tip would be to look in the 70s rails. When the first Gatsby film came out in 1974, it promoted a 20s trend, so you often find 20s style pieces, that were actually from the 70s.

Probably my first memory of theatre, the first one I guess that had an impact on me was when I saw my very first panto with my Primary School.

But it keeps me off the streets. It has been a love of mine since I was 17 maybe.
