Information
  • What do you love most about Britain?
    Plenty of places to visit to appreciate our lovely coastline. Loads of historic buildings. Plenty of beautiful gardens. Our ability to see the funny side of most situations and laugh at ourselves.
    What is your happiest memory?
    Being on holiday with my nieces and seeing how much they enjoyed themselves.
    What are your favourite hobbies or interests
    Volunteering for my local Hospice shop. Reading, just about everything, except for Science Fiction and Fantasy. Small on-line book seller. Visting National Trust properties and gardens. Knitting and crocheting, mainly for the same Hospice shop.
    Where is your favourite place?
    I used to live in The Cotswolds, which was great, but I really love being by the sea. I guess that Cornwall is my favourite place at the moment, but there are still many areas of the country that I have yet to explore.
    What is your favourite music?
    I like an eclectic mix of music, but I cannot stand heavy rock, or blues.
    What are your favourite books?
    I read anything apart from Science Fiction or Fantasy, but enjoy Detective Novels and Fiction/Saga.
