I would not call myself a real movie buff, as I find most movies too long. I find it hard to cope with the bad language in a lot of modern movies. I prefer drama, though some so-called "romantic comedies" are quite enjoyable, e.g. Notting Hill etc. I recently saw The Young Victoria (great) and Julie & Julia (fabulous).

Being a teenager when the Beatles came to light, I am a real Beatles fan and still have my scrapbooks from when I was fourteen. I can't part with them. I like most of the music from the sixties. I also like earlier music as my mother always sang as we were growing up. I like a lot of classical music, particularly Mozart, Chopin and Verdi. I also like brass band music!

Reading is another favourite pastime. I have always at least two books on the go at once, and am not happy unless I have several on hand "to be read". Luckily, my local library is very well stocked; if I had to buy all the books I read, I'd be broke.
Belonging to a Book Group has broadened my horizons regarding choices, but I do not like science fiction or cheesy "romance" novels. Some of my favourite authors are: Ian McEwan, Jodi Picoult, Lisa Gardner, Joyce Carol Oates - really too many to list.

Eating is one of my favourite pastimes. I really prefer savoury/salty to sweet/sugary. I can pass on cakes and desserts, but find it hard to resist cheese and nibbles. I could happily eat chicken or fish every day, but I also enjoy meat. I don't eat enough fruit, but my favourites are oranges, pineapple, mango. I'm a bit strange in that I don't eat "red" food; I've been like this all my life and don't know why!

My Emergency Contact is:
Soaringlikeaneagle
Soaringlikeaneagle became a NOTH friend shortly after I joined and we've found we have many interests in common. Dianne and I share a similar sense of humour and have emailed privately and spoken on the phone. She is a lovely, caring person and it would be great if we could meet. |
I live a happy life in Sydney, with family all close by. Jim and I are in a nice space (second time around for both). My parents, brother and sister (and their families) all live within ten minutes of us and we all see each other a lot.
I am shy at first, and talk too much when nervous! When I get to know people, I'm comfortable. I like a good discussion - "wishy washy" is not me - I think it's good to have an opinion. I quite like an argument that doesn't degenerate into abuse.
I am now retired but was in the corporate sector for many years and met many fascinating people.
I am a bit of a perfectionist and a neat freak, but not as bad as I used to be!

I like my life, blessed as I am with family and friends. I like to laugh and do so often. I love to read. I love fresh flowers, especially sweetpeas and roses, pink and white! I love the sound of babies and small children laughing. I prefer a river to the beach. Rainbows are nice. My budgie is cute. I like chocolate, fresh bread, smoked salmon, white wine, good cheese. I like my computer and think I might have to give her a name.

Some of the things that annoy me are: jumped-up politicians; hypocrisy; doofdoof music; road rage; being late; bad hair days; sore feet; and especially BANANAS!!
