If you’re reading this post then I guess you’re interested in finding out something about me.

So here goes:

Music – I played the piano for a very long time, practised a lot and thought I’d have a career in music, until I realised there are lots more people with more talent and determination.

Lately I’ve been listening to Mozart’s symphonies and piano sonatas. If you were to ask me what’s in my record collection (I’m still holding on to LPs that I listened to as a teen) then you’ll find a lot of albums by Prince. My favourite is Parade.

I’m a cat person, as I like that they’re independent and still have it in them to be a little dangerous and wild. Our current cats bring in the odd mouse or bird and think they’re giving me a present.

Birthplace: Taipei and when we were moving to Britain, I learned my name and to ask for the toilet in English.

I don’t remember exactly when I learned to speak English, my memories of my first days in school were playing with the other kids, so I must have managed to communicate somehow. We lived in a small 2 bed roomed flat in Chelsea, until my parents had saved enough to to move to Bletchley.

At at secondary school, I met my future husband. I guess that makes us technically childhood sweethearts. We didn’t go out with each other serously until after we’d both graduated and got out first jobs.

My first perfume, the one that I bought for myself, is Chanel, Cristalle. I discovered it on board a ferry on the way to what was my first holiday without my family. A group of students, in our freshers year went camping to the south of France. I won’t do camping again, I hated having sand everywhere.

During the day, I work in marketing, there have been some fantastic moments in my career, such as working with the team at Royal Mail to help them promote the London 2012 Gold Medal Stamps. I got to watch every U.K athlete as they collected Gold and celebrate it in a stamp.

My eldest, (I’m blessed with 2 girls) is approaching her teens – where did the time go? How is it that they’re growing up so quick.

Lastly, this blog is for them, a way to discover and find things we can connect with, share a common interest.
