Too many...here are some things I don't like- yahs (way too many in this beautiful city), Paris Hilton, scenesters, Hollyoaks, being away from my friends and family for too long, people that bang on about religion being the world's biggest evil (it's as bad as being a religious fanatic in my eyes), running out of tea bags, bad drum and bass remixes, Pendulum, not being able to see Daft Punk at Rockness, people with no pride, the amount of money it costs to fly to Mauritius....
I'd like to meet:
People I've lost contact with over the years, the internet is great for that. Also anyone who is passionate about being involved in events, whether it's DJs, MCs, bands, producers, graphic designers, VJs whatever putting on good events for me is about meeting people and bringing talents together to make something beautiful (or at least something rinsing!!!).
Music:
Everything, drum & bass, hip hop, techno, reggae, grime, dubstep, old skool, hardcore, electro, desi beats in fact I have so many mates that mix so many different genres of music and I'll happily go out dancing to anything.

Movies:
Will need to come back to this section, way too many to list just now, I'm a member of LOVEFILM.com so I watch LOADS of movies...Really into old 60s/70s flicks. Most things with Pam Grier, Raquel Welch and Ursula Andress get a big thumbs up from me as they are beautiful, strong women who have some much more style and class than the supposed stars of today, the Paris Hilton's and all the wannabe size zeros of this world could learn a thing or two about beauty from the stars of the 70s.
Television:
I LOVE watching football (especially the mighty Hibernian Football Club and Manchester United). Also Formula 1, The Apprentice, Dragon's Den, The Simpsons, South Park, Heroes, American Dad, Eastenders, Neighbours, Lost, The Sopranos, Skins, League of Gentlemen, Adam & Joe, Trigger Happy TV, Red Dwarf, The A-Team, any nature documentries about elephants, any travel show about Mauritius ("You gather the idea that Mauritius was made first, and then Heaven, and that Heaven was copied after Mauritius."-Mark Twain, enough said really), Family Fortunes, Peep Show, Blind Date...
Books:
Not a big book reader unfortunately, never seem to have the time although recently I was lucky to have the Philip Pullman 'His Dark Material' trilogy read to me in full by my boyfriend...Ahh...! Do have a lot of autobiographies and photography books...I absolutely ADORE Robert McGinnis's art it's ultra cool...
Heroes:
My parents. My dad left Mauritius when he was 18 and spent 1 month on a boat to get to the UK so he could train to become a nurse, my mum came here aged 18 too having never been abroad in her life, neither of them had much money and they have worked hard all their lives to get where they are today. Alice AKA Termite AKA the best mate a girl could have, we've known each other since primary school and she's one in a million. Also all the people who have helped me follow my dreams, especially those that have helped with running my events, you know who you are and you know I love you. Big special shout to Stewart, LLoyd & Jaq at The Venue it was an absolute pleasure to work with you guys and believe it or not you all taught me a lot about running events (and a lot about life too!). G*Mac too for being the best promoter in Edinburgh, Manga is still the best night Edinburgh has seen in my lifetime(in my humble opinion)! Also Bobby from La Belle Angele for giving Al and I the opportunity to start Obscene, would never have happened otherwise.
