Hallo

I can't say these are particularly interesting facts about me but...

I live in Kent with my husband and our 3-year-old rescue terrier Judy, also known as Little Miss Mayhem, who came to us in late January last year after our beautiful Candy died on Christmas morning 2007.

I've been with AOL since April 2003 and have made the acquaintance of many lovely people.

I work as a freelance copy-editor and proofreader for mainstream publishers, but fully intended to cut back a little when I turned sixty two years ago but it hasn't seemed to have worked out that way... Perhaps when my husband retires in two years' time?

'Near this spot lies the remains of one who had beauty without vanity. Strength without insolence. Courage without ferocity. And all the virtues of man without his vices. My dog.' --- Inscribed on the monument to Lord Byron's dog, Boatswain, at Newstead Abbey.
