hi there,
my name is Magill, and I call myself Lil but everyone knows me as Fritzi - and I'm your hostess for It is the 🍂 and
To begin my life with the beginning of my life, I record that I was born. In October.
I'm tall, have blue eyes and blonde hair, attended school and then another school. And another.
I like the colour black, pizza and coffee, curry, bread, admire the work of singers John Lennon, The Beatles, George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Sam Cooke, The Doors, Donovan, Jimi Hendrix, The Ronettes, The Band, Small Faces, The Lovin' Spoonful, Johnny Cash...
Film stars - Marlon Brando, Paul Newman, Steve McQueen.
I like clothes which are dark in colour, suede, linen and corduroy.
My aesthetic can best be described as Beatnik.
I play the guitar - and sometimes I play the fool
- do spare-time writing and sport.
I like books, photography, and I'm a cinephile.
Being a typical ♎️ I do have a penchant for everything pretty.
I dislike thick heads.

- My guitar is an Epiphone AJ-45ME Sunburst; of course inspired by John Lennon's Gibson J-160E.

- Swimming in the ocean 🌊 is bliss.
Every now and then, I put on my critic's cap and write about the media I consumed - or the media that consumed me. Occasionally, I record my odyssey through the peaks and valleys of web design and my attempts to make everything pretty.
