Although we haven't been allocated our Santa/Santees yet, I thought I'd better pop my hints on here just in case. 'Fraid it's mostly cut & paste though, haven't changed much *grin*

1. Still Mid-40's (for a while yet)

2. Female

3. Love Purple, Black, Greens & Blues.

4 & 5. Have read all Terry Pratchett's and have a good collection of his Hard-back First Editions (apart from Discworld 1st & 2nd books - but they're nearly into 4 figures now so please don't worry about searching for them!!). Any science fantasy, dragons & wizzards, fiction, thrillers (have read almost all of Clive Cussler), crime etc. Second-hand is preferred, dogeared and with broken spines are perfectly acceptable, shows they're recommended!

6 & 7. Traditional Folk, a capella singing, contempory folk, female voice (anything that's good, stuff you've done, anything of Catters, ones with good songs to try).

8. Not into movies or DVD's - rarely get time in front of the TV.

9. Large still, though I am working on it, honest....

10, 11 & 12. Am accumulating an interesting collection of crafty earrings, pierced & dangly!!! Silver-tone seems to go best with my favourite colours. Seem to have accumulated stones from various places & beaches...

13. Love Cats, Chocolate, plants & trees, secret gardens, interesting places, earth powers, intuition & friendship.

Allergies yes, mainly alkaline-forming foods (have never eaten fruit so that's a definite negative). Luckily there aren't many other negatives in my life apart from the food!

Happy to read any packing material too, as long as it isn't technical stuff that is!
