About me

I like the idea of putting ordinary people on the plinth and making Trafalgar Square about them rather than just about famous people.

I don't see the plinth as a stage on which I am expected to perform to entertain the people watching. It's just about making that public space mine for an hour, being myself, doing what I want and enjoying the hour during which that space is about me.

There is something very calming about your presence, I'm not sure what it is exactly but I'm glad you're on the plinth. That probably sounds strange, but I suppose it's also kind of strange to stand on a plinth in the rain. ha.

You were truly a work of art - but was that really the Guardian? Could you see Alison from the top? Trafalgar Square has so much character compared to Milton Keynes, don't you think?

Hello fellow Plinther! Hope it all goes well and you enjoy the experience! Your three descriptive words are shouting at me but as I am only 37 I fear it is some way off!!!

Kind regards - Jill
