HI EVERYONE - I REALLY COULDN'T MISS THIS THREAD - BENT WING OR NOT!!

SORRY ITS ALL IN CAPS. MAKES ONE FINGER 'PLONKING' A LITTLE EASIER!

OK HERE I GO - I ENJOY READING - ABSOLUTLEY ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING - INCL. FICTION & NON-FICTION, ESPECIALLY BIOGRAPHIES. ANYTHING HISTORICAL I REALLY ENJOY.
QUITE ENJOY MURDER/MYSTERIES TOO!

I LOVE CROSS STITCHING - AND MOST OF THEM ARE GIVEN AS PRESENTS - I DID TWO WEDDING SAMPLERS LAST YEAR AND THEY WERE WELCOMED SO MUCH, MAINLY I THINK BECAUSE OF THE TIME AND EFFORT THAT WENT INTO A VERY PERSONAL PRESENT - NOT SOMETHING BOUGHT IN A STORE!

I LOVE DOING 'CRAFT' PROJECTS BEING MOSIAC TILING OR GLASS PAINTING AND MAKING MY OWN BIRTHDAY/CHRISTMAS CARDS.
I ENJOY BAKING AND FILLING THE KITCHEN WITH GORGEOUS YUMMY SMELLS - TROUBLE IS, NOW THE GIRLS ARE NO LONGER AT HOME IF I EAT THE GOODIES - I'M PUTTING WEIGHT ON!!!

TRAVELLING IS WONDERFUL - A FRIEND AND I ARE PLANNING A VISIT TO ALASKA - BUT WE DON'T WANT TO DO THE 'CRUISE SHIP' THING. WE'VE PLANNED OUR ROUTE USING THE FERRIES - AND WE CAN VISIT THE PLACES WE WANT TO SEE - NOT WHERE THE BOAT TAKES US!
BUT THERE ARE SOOOOOO MANY PLACES I WANT TO VISIT BEFORE I GET TOO OLD!!
I'VE VISITED ITALY, FRANCE AND SPAIN (REGULARLY!). AND OF COURSE NOW DIANE LIVES IN CHICAGO WE'VE VISITED THERE AND NASHVILLE AND NEW YORK - GREAT PLACE!

I DON'T KNOW IF I DARE PUT THIS - BUT I ENJOY BIKING!!!! NO DON'T ALL SHOUT AT ME - IT WAS AN ACCIDENT!!!!! I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO A SUMMER OF BIKING - SHAME!

ANOTHER HOBBY ON HOLD IS LINE DANCING! GREAT STUFF, KEEPS ME FIT AND IT;S JUST SO MUCH FUN! I WAS ACTUALLY GOING TO TAKE PART IN THE CLOSING CEREMONY OF THE COMMONWEALTH GAMES TAKING PLACE IN MANCHESTER AT THE END OF JULY - BUT I CAN'T DO IT NOW! BOO HOO!! DON AND OTHER FRIENDS ARE STILL GOING TO DO IT THOUGH.

I LOVE MEETING PEOPLE, GOING OUT FOR DINNER , I ADORE FILMS AND GOING TO THE THEATRE. AND THE OCCASSIONAL LIVE CONCERT.

OH AND LOOKING AFTER THE THREE MUSKETEERS!!!!!!!!!!

MISS YOU ALL- THANKS TO THE ONES WHO HAVE SENT ME P.M. AND EMAILS - YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!! {{{{}}}}

LOVE
