Andrew....whats in a name ?

Just watched a wonderful programme about the Medici with Andrew Graham Dixon, who has joined my list of unattractive yet strangely desirable men (the other is Andrew Marr). Perhaps it is their erudition and enthusiasm that is so appealing ? Can anyone enlighten me ? Does anyone else have that little voice in their head going "Why, why, why.............? Go look at someone pretty" ?

I don't know who he is (should look it up tho, now!) but isn't the saying "men are caught by the eye, women by the ear"? ;-)
Not that I pay attention to such axioms, you comprehend. Just saying!

What a marvellous phrase - thank you for that, I think it is very true, humour and intelligence are a necessity in a man. Love your blog by the way, fragrance as an intellectual pursuit - I have found several new perfumes on your advice/reviews

Happy New Year! My current guilty crush of this type is Rob Brydon. Again, probably because he's funny and clever. Although it doesn't work for Steve Coogan, I think because he already loves himself so much. Pretty much anyone on QI will do, as well, but the longest-standing one has to be Dylan Moran. Although he actually is extremely good-looking so probably doesn't count...
My word verification for this comment was ACKINGUE, which I think is probably a French way of describing my cough. It seemed appropriate!

In that strange way Karma has, Rob Brydon actually came into the shop yesterday. Shorter than I thought but thoroughly charming, and I managed not to drool, babble, or pass out. I will now just cross my fingers for Dylan Moran.

Well you know how I feel about Boris Johnson...I think it was Rachel Weisz (spelling?) who said that the sexist organ is the brain. Bright men rock. It's the sparkle in their eyes.

When are you going to post again?! Once you have, I'll stick you on my blogroll. Come on, you can do it! I like your style and you cheered me up! RRxxx

I know what you mean about Andrew Marr. I cant put my finger on it, but he does something :) Missed the Medici programme - too much Xmas stuff to sort out. Will see if it's on demand.

Such a wonderful expression -- thanks for your, We believe it is most evident, humour as well as cleverness really are a requirement inside a guy. Adore your site incidentally, scent being an rational goal -- I've discovered a number of brand new fragrances in your advice/reviews.
