Introduction | When I worked I was a nurse, then a warden but my back quit and left me on the receiving end instead of dishing it out. That was back in 1989. Contrary to initial expectations the world didn’t come to an end and it turned out there was a lot more fun left to be had. Joys in my life include my lovely husband Tony, my brothers and their kids, 3 seriously spoiled cats, some quite amazing friends, making music, making and creating in general, taking pictures, reading and learning, gardening and travelling. Chronic pain isn’t great and the Oxycodone makes things a bit fuzzy sometimes Deeply angered by the attitude of those currently in power to those of us who need their support. |
Interests | Music making, listening to music, making art, art history, embroidery, crafts various, gardening, history, cats, disability politics, books especially sci-fi and fantasy, most things really with the exception of football! |
Favorite Movies | Driving Miss Daisy Fantasia Alien Harry Potter series LOTR loads more but I'm hopeless at remembering names |
Favorite Music | Very broad tastes from Tallis and Byrd to Led Zeppelin Pink Floyd and Black Sabbath. I sing folk and blues. |
Favorite Books | Way too many to list. Lots of sci-fi - Arthur C Clarke, Robert Heinlein, Issac Asimov. lots of fantasy - Terry Pratchett, Anne McCaffery, Robin Hobb, Tom Holt, Tolkein Whodunnits - Lindsey Davis etc Georgette Heyer is my literary equivelent of comfort eating. |
