I like tea and food and gigs and punks and tattoos and bangles and gin and the internet and my video collection and flat pack furniture and gardening and old buildings and reading, especially when your book is so good you almost miss your tube stop. And I like puzzles and long train journeys and nail varnish and the crackle at the beginning of records and pets and Christmas and ballet pumps and decorating and big rings and garden parties and modern art and coming home.
I don't like selfishness or baked beans.
Punk, new wave, rockabilly, ska, 60s pop groups, old bluesy country, 80s pop, eccentric female singers, art rock, and any hybrids of two of more of the above.
Clueless, Pulp Fiction, True Romance, Amelie, Wayne's World, Breakfast at Tiffany's, St Elmo's Fire, Clue, Napoleon Dynamite, Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey, The Shining, The Jungle Book, Edward Scissorhands, and other oddities.
My TV taste combines the passions of a housewife with the rebellion of youth: The Simpsons, CSI, Grand Designs, Green Wing, Property Ladder, 10 Years Younger, Shameless, Dungeons and Dragons, My Name Is Earl, How Clean Is Your House?, Twin Peaks, Location Location, The Young Ones
Stephen King, John Wyndham, Frank L Baum, Jules Verne, Roald Dahl, Anais Nin, Lewis Carroll, James Herbert, JK Rowling......and everybody should read 'We Need To Talk About Kevin' by Lionel Shriver
Randall from 'Clerks', Joan Collins, and Crab Man ("Mr Turtle doesn't belong to anybody, but he is my friend")
