Music.... if I had to choose between going blind or going deaf! I would go blind, If I never heard music again I would go mad! I love it. Theatre...having working front of house years ago, loved it and backstage too.. Loved the independent productions.
God, i'd have a few questions id'd like to ask. Why the rich get richer and the poor starve and waste away. I don't normally have links to other websites but this is my daughters and I love her blog..Check in and see if you have time.

I am lucky enough to have a great bunch of mates who like me, love going to see great films. Last film I was 'HOTFUZZ'. Okay, I admit, I saw it twice in one week. I just love that humour, very dry and black. Saw the 'departed' and half way through the film figured out the title. Everyone got killed (whoops, sorry. If you haven't seen it have just given the plot away).
Not a TV watcher but have managed to see a few recent adaptations from the BBC based on Shakespeare set in modern times, The taming of the shrew and Much ado about nothing. Very good! Occasionally like abit of escapism, reality TV has its points there, you can pick up where you left off and due to the amount of recaps, haven't missed a bean! Can't wait for flight of the conchords.The comic strip Presents. Oldies and hysterically funny. rik mayall, alexis sayle, dawn french, jennifer saunders (pre ab fab) Fav's include ' A fist full of travellers cheques' and 'the strike' Go get them out of the video store and piss yourself laughing! Am kind of hooked on Heroes too. Since I am now a nine to five girl jobwise, I have more time at night to be home and get to watch too much TV (must break this habit)Extras with Ricky Gervais is brilliant. The humour is so simple and uncomplicated, how humour should be! Be prepared to piss yourself laughing!.. width=
Am trying desperately to finish a book by Janet Frame-Owls do cry! Must get rid of the razor blades! One book I would recommend is 'the nazi officers wife' by Edith Hahn. A true story of an austrian Jew's survival during the holocaust. Amazing. Would also recommend 'Brickland' by Monica Ali. superb, an insight into racism from someone else's perspective! Refreshing. have just finised 'The Curious incident of the Dead dog in the night time'. Not sure if its a kids book or adults but either way a great crossover book and a great insight into ausbers syndrome and how we percieve it from the outsid!
Dory: what a fish! What a memory. She plods on relentlessly, even with a memory like crap (I feel I can relate to her!)
