Vera Loathin' 72
What is your alter ego? (i.e. what do you do when you aren’t on the track)
I’m doing a PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience – looking at brain activity in Schizophrenia. I’m also a life model.
What’s the best boutfit you’ve seen (or your own fave)?
I generally love a lot of leopard print. But you also can’t beat shiny hotpants.
How did you hear about Roller Derby?
I lived in Lincoln for a bit, and can remember hearing about the Bombers when they were setting up. I was really interested in joining, but knew I was starting my MSc in Nottingham in a few months and would be moving.
What’s your Derby dream?
To be badass!
Red or Purple?
Leopard print.
What’s your poison?
I’ll have a White Russian, if you’re buying.
If you could have any super power, what would it be and why?
Can I get some retractable claws like Wolverine, or Molly Millions from Neuromancer, please?
What’s your favourite film?
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (of course), and anything by David Lynch.
What is the most embarrassing thing that has even happened to you?
When I was 7, I superglued one of my eyes shut. My left eye remained shut for 17 days.
If you could have dinner with anyone, dead or alive – who would it be and why?
David Lynch, because I love him. Or Charlie Brooker, ‘cos I want to lick him. Or my wives!
