Reading, writing, travelling, watching cricket (occasionally trying to play - highest score to date of 17 not out!), rugby and most other sports except football (which is so 2-dimensional and over-rated it makes me want to suck my brain out through my eyeballs - that said, I will watch the World Cup if England are playing but that's just to be patriotic and I do need to be plied heavily with alcohol beforehand). I also enjoy cooking and watching cooking programmes, particularly those featuring that gorgeous Northern hunk, James Martin! Watching films, entertaining friends, drinking wine. I also recently rediscovered the joy of playing chess! Great game, though I got soundly thrashed both times.England v Australia 2005 Ashes we won

I'm going to assume this is a hypothetical 'would like to meet' rather than a lonely hearts 'would like to meet'! On that basis then, I 'm going to arrange it like a dream dinner guest scenario. Sitting next to me, as my date, I'd have the sexy, steely Mickael Atherton - fine cricketer and witty, accomplished presenter/commentator. Then I'd have Coco Chanel - not particularly into fashion, but she'd be fascinating to talk to. She was about 17 at the turn of the 20th century and lived til the 1970s so it would be amazing to hear what she made of all the changes she saw, not just in fashion, but in culture, science, politics - everything! I'd have to have Jesus there too, just so I could find out what he makes of all the stuff that goes on in in his name, good and bad. Stephen Fry and Eddie Izzard would have to come because they're both incredibly funny and scarily clever men and they'd keep the conversation flowing after I'd insulted Jesus by getting drunk and telling him that I didn't think his dad really existed. I'd get the Two Fat Ladies in to cook the starter, fish and main courses and James Martin (aaah, James, lovely James!!!) can come and make pudding - preferably just for me (Michael would've got fed up with me by then and would be trying to cop off with Coco or Eddie.)! So there's my 'would like to meet'!!! Probably did it all wrong, but I don't really care! It was fun! Let me know what you think of my choices! x

Love music but tend to treat it as a background thing, so am not quite as devoted as some to bands and groups. LOVE Snow Patrol! Coldplay, the Killers, David Gray, The Kooks, The Feeling, Maroon 5, James Morrisson and that kind of guitary type stuff, but I also like jazz, classical and cheesey pop when in the right mood.
