What do we have in common? Interests and hobbies, besides animals!

If this one "Essential Europe" (I think it's called) is coming on, watch it! It's really funny! George Cole plays a middle aged man travelling around Europe with his "under the thumb" wife, who is really quite together and a lot smarter than him!

Also the 90th. birthday party is worth watching! They show it here every New Years eve.

offend spanish people.I don't known if it was shown in spanish TV.I absolutely liked Yes Minister,also Brideshead Revisited and many other british series,they are the best!
What is Absolutely Fabolous?Sometimes the title changes from country to country.

I've watched alot of different stuff ranging from Neon Genesis Evangelion to Marmalade boy but I would have to say my faves are Fushigi Yugi, Ranma 1/2, Ceres, Marmalade Boy, Trigun and Rorunini Kenshin...I'm still wating to watch the rest of the Kenshin series though.

What about you Ann?

I've seen a wide range, basically anything I could get my hands on over here. I haven't seen/read many full series though, since it's so hard to get them and it's pretty expensive.

Some of my favorite series include X (known as X/1999 in the USA), Gundam Wing, Zetsuai, Tokyo Babylon and many more. I would wanna get my hands on Ceres really bad, but so far no luck


And I forgot to mention, I also have a big hobby in making things out of those nice colored clays that you put in the oven to make them hard! Here's a few examples of things I've done:







And I enjoy baking alot, and decorating cakes with marzipan figurines like this.

What a great thread! My name is Leslie and I am 27 years old. I will have been married for 3 years as of November 5th, 2002. My husband and I are the best of friends. In fact, he's the best friend I have ever had. I am also extremely close to my mother, as she is also my very best friend, as well as my mother. I treasure what I have with my mom, as it is not all that common. My dad died when I was just 11 months old so my mom was a stay-home mom to me and my two brothers, which have caused us to have the best relationship with her. I have two brothers: My older brother is Justin, who is 29 and a younger brother Jesse, who is 25.

I do computer desktop support for a publishing company. The company I work for publishes trade magazines, not real interesting ones for that matter I have been at my job for close to 3 years. It's a decent job but the pay is very poor and since 9-11, no one in the company has received any bonuses (including the usual Christmas bonus that everyone really looks forward to) nor as any pay raises, and benifits have also decreased a huge amount. I enjoy having a job but I am sick of having such crummy pay, and it's doing stuff that I don't thoroughlly enjoy anyway. Change is in the air.

I enjoy anything outdoors. I love the water, although I hate being in a bathing suit for obvious reasons I so much enjoy dog training and trained dogs. My dream job would also be to own/operate a doggie daycare center/dog training facility, just like Candy dreams of. I would also love to train dogs for Leader Dogs For The Blind, as their headquarters are very close to me.

I am also a homebody. Home is so important to me, so I like keeping things tidy and decorating and cooking and cleaning and baking. I really love gardening and look forward to being able to start my own garden at the new house. I simply can't wait to pick out the interior color schemes for my new house either

I also enjoy playing on the computer but I have little time these days

[mugsy]

Leslie, if it makes you feel any better, I haven't owned a bathing suit since 1984!! lol

Lovely things you do Ann!

I can't agree more! I wish I could make these marcipan flowers, would look great on top of a Sarah Bernard - uhmm, I fell like having one now with my coffee!

[Former User]

Ann, those are beautiful! I used to make them too, but that was looooong time ago, when I was just a little girl
I'd still like to do them, maybe I should....

Hah, too late, I am fat already!

I love forests and bears and wild cats, like panthers and mt. lions. California has pristine forests of redwood and cougars live on wild untouched beaches and coastal forests.
