About Me

Beautiful. And burnt out. Older than I think I am, but content with that. Love dancing. My feet hate me for it the next morning. Love dance music with some intelligence about it. Hate country and western. Love cooking. Hate washing up. Love being a mum. Hate doing the laundry. Love eating. Hate putting on weight. Love drinking good wine and vodka and tonic. Hate hangovers that last two days. Love life. Hate misery.

My Interests

Music,dancing, food, wine, politics, rugby.

I'd like to meet:

Open-minded open-hearted people.

Music:

Techno, Tech-House, Progressive House, Prog in general (yeah all that old stuff). Anything with a good beat intelligently composed.

Movies:

Top 5: Local Hero, LA Confidential, Fargo, The Matrix, Smilla's Sense of Snow.

Television:

Hardly watch any, but love a good thriller/mystery story.

Books:

Foucault's Pendulum - Umberto Eco, The Stand - Stephen King, The Magi - John Fowles, The Unbearable Lightness of Being - Milan Kundera... loads and loads more.

Heroes:

Michael Mansfield QC, Nelson Mandela, Rosa Parks, Ghandi, Brian Haw, Rick Smith, Karl Hyde. And anyone who marches to the beat of a different drum.
