Ooh, a bit of everything, pretty much. I enjoy classical music sometimes - don't claim to know very much about it, but I just know what I like :) Also rock and pop. Some of my musical tastes are reflected in the two Playlists on here.
Below: St. Fagan's Castle, situated just outside the City of Cardiff, S. Wales, is home to the Museum of Welsh Life, which shows the way we all lived, dating back from about 1500 to the present time. The very old cottages and buildings, were brought from all areas of Wales. First, they were dismantled, stone by stone (all being meticulously numbered) so that they could be faithfully re-built in the extensive grounds of the Castle.
Inside, the cottages have been furnished with items of their period, to reflect what life was like way back then. There are fires burning in their hearths, so it's easy to find yourself being transported, by imagination, to more historical times.

Autobiographies, mysteries, almost anything that is interesting, gripping, funny or informative.

Gosh, I haven't really got one particular favourite... but I guess fresh, home-made bread would come pretty high on the list :) Also curries, Chinese food, (usually cooked by myself) salads, etc. We are both quite easy to please really :-)

I have been married for nearly 37 years, to Terry, my husband whom I love dearly, We are employed by three cats, all of whom were adopted by us, when they were found as strays. We have lived with many cats over the years, all of whom seemed to "find us" when they were in need of a home. Some have been old, some were not in good health.... but all were, and are, loved to bits.
I am interested by technology and taught myself to use a computer about eight years ago. Of course, the learning process continues and I just consider myself to be a happy amateur lol.
Feeling that I wanted to try to "give something back" I began to "crunch" with the World Community Grid a couple of years back. This means that whilst my computer is on, any spare computing power is used for the benefit of research science and medicine. I am basically a member of a world-wide team, who collectively, can make a difference, and hopefully, will help in the battle to find cures for cancer and other such dread diseases.

Spiders! eek!
Bigotry or thoughtlessness. I dislike crowded places.
Migraine! I tend to suffer very debilitating attacks which knock me out for several days. (So if you don't see me around, please don't think badly of me, I'm probably just out-of-action, but will bounce back again at some point.) So meanwhile, why not help yourself to a fresh-cream tea... it's not fattening here, honestly!

I enjoy using my computer, reading, art and crafting, cooking, etc. A lot of things interest me, so I have even been known to turn my hand to some DIY occasionally.
