I love walking in the Lake District - especially in Autumn - when it looks like this...(Rydal Water)
Castlerigg Stone Circle in the Lake District, which has been there for 5000 years, is a really interesting place. My watch once stopped the whole time I was within the circle....
My beloved Lake District with The Lark Ascending by Vaughn Williams which is one of my favourite pieces of music:-
Another place I love going to is Glastonbury - once the magical Isle of Avalon before they drained the land around it - what a special, spiritual and mystical place this is:-

I like music with some intelligence, sophistication, mysticism or humour.

Currently listening to:- Clare Teal's excellent CD "Get Happy".
Which Kate Bush Album Are You? (Includes Aerial!)
You are Kate's first album, The Kick Inside! Quirky, charming, and a bit offbeat, you are full of romantic energy and poetic, almost mystical imagery. Key songs: Wuthering Heights, The Man with the Child in His Eyes, Them Heavy People. Take this quiz!
In alphabetical order:- 84 Charing Cross Road, Black Book, Bridget Jones, Brief Encounter, Connie & Carla, East Is East, Funny Girl & Funny Lady, Her Majesty Mrs. Brown, Rebecca, Tea With Mussolini, The Apartment, What's Up Doc?, Wuthering Heights (1939). I love anything with Julie Walters in it - she just cracks me up.
This video is from Funny Lady - which was the first Streisand film that I ever saw...

Or any film with Hugh Jackman.
Television
The 6ixth Sense with Colin Fry, Talk Shows, The Sunday Night Project, Movie and History Channels. Ugly Betty and Desperate Housewives are fun too.
Books
Any books by Gill Edwards, Diana Cooper, Shakti Gawain, Louise L. Hay and their ilk. Any books on Spiritualism. Don't like novels - but love a good autobiography. Poetry from Wordsworth to Dorothy Parker to Rumi.
I'm currently reading The House Of Sleep by Jonathan Coe, I don't usually read fiction, but this was recommended to me - so I'll see what it's like.
Heroes
Barbra Streisand for her strength and convictions. Kate Bush for her myticism and for "rolling the ball". Gill Edwards for her spiritual teachings. And Shirley MacLaine for going out on a limb.
About me: I love travelling, walking in nature, reading self-improvement books and biographies, spirituality (not religious), alternative therapies, cycling and keeping fit.
I'm training to become a Medium and seem to have developed rather quickly recently - it's a wonderful mind expanding experience and I can't get enough of it.
I like to hear from people all over the world - so send me a message or IM me!
