About me

Gender Female
Occupation writer
Location Hampshire, United Kingdom
Introduction I go in for bursts of frantic activity followed by hours of slothful collapse - a bit like a cat. I'm mostly cheerful but can worry for England and I love small children. I also love Cadbury's Dairy Milk chocolate and Jameson's whiskey if anyone's handing out samples; and I spend far too much time surfing the net.
Interests Writing, painting, children, cats (only one dog in my life - the late & legendary Lottie), castles, stately homes, industrial archaelogy, travelling, retail therapy - the art of spending all day shopping with a kindred spirit and only coughing up money on parking and coffee.
Favorite Movies Roman Holiday, Witness, Gone with the Wind, Some like it Hot, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, LA Confidential, Practical Magic
Favorite Music Pachelbel's Canon, Elgar Cello
Favorite Books Silly question but specially those by:Angela Thirkell, Charlotte McCleod, Lindsey Davis, Terry Pratchett, Charlotte M Yonge, Ariana Franklin. Cosy crime is top favourite.
