Writing, travelling, socialising, cinema, theatre, going out with mates, chilling out with mates, spending time with fambo, people-watching...
I'd like to meet:
Likeminded people - film buffs, music buffs, general down to earth normal people from wherever in the world. Other writers would be good, and musicians and whoever really. Love the creative types but I find everyone fits that category when you scratch the surface so the more the merrier. Incidentally if any of you look like the star of my profile you can have my phone number, hehe ;-)
Music:
Madonna, Annie Lennox (have you heard SING yet?), Millie Jackson, Aretha Franklin, Cat Stevens, Arcade Fire, Emmylou Harris, Patsy CLine, Dixie Chicks, Kylie Minogue, Girls Aloud, Siobhan Donaghy, John Legend, Alicia Keys, Jill Scott, Keyshia Cole, Mary J, Sheryl Crow, Patti Smith, Stevie Nicks, NeYo, the list is endless, tends to be a mix of hot black men, fierce divas and depressing country singers...

God need I go on...
Television:
Eagerly awaiting L Word Season 5, recently converted to Hollyoaks, Simpsons is the greatest show ever made so will always watch that. Ab Fab and Cell Block H were responsible for my becoming a diva-obsessed hom. Oh and I like to unwind with Corrie when I can... OH and the X Factor, although wearing thin with it's manipulative sob stories and over use of Westlife music, still entertains!

And so on.

Madonna, Oprah, Maya Angelou, MLK Jr, James Dean, Wes Craven, John Carpenter, David Lynch, Pedro Almodovar, George Clooney, all the authors named in the Books section, Jennifer Saunders, Vic Wood, Aaron Spelling bless his soul, anyone who goes against the grain and makes a difference, anyone who goes with the flow but makes a difference anyway, my parents, a couple of my friends who shall remain nameless, and the ultimate hero... HOMER SIMPSON!
