About me

Gender Female
Location Ollaberry, Shetland, United Kingdom
Introduction I'm a crofter in the far north of Scotland, who a few years ago realised a lifelong ambition and took a degree in contemporary textiles. Having fetched up in Shetland nearly thirty years ago with a little boy and not much else, after living at both ends of the globe, I seem to still be here, having added a husband, two girls and a couple of dozen cows.
Interests textiles, gardening, cows, pottering, bread, soap, felt, hens, ducks, dreaming, reading, weaving, barbequeing, not necessarily in that order :)
Favorite Movies A Matter of Life and Death, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, The Coneheads, anything by the Coen Bros, and Clash of the Titans (the original)
Favorite Music Classical, northern Euriopean preferably, Led Zeppelin, Eric Coates, music hall, Jazz Record Requests with breakf
Favorite Books Campion, Lord Peter Wimsey, Maisie Dobbs (there's a theme here), Mary Wesley, Sebastian Faulkes, Sarah Waters, Phillip Pullman, Jane Austen (of course), Patrick O'Brian etc etc etc
