  5. My favourite part of the UK is the Lake District and I have three favourite cities of the world – London, Sydney and San Francisco

    You don’t like swimming? Lol, I’d like to be able to call myself a swimaholic, but I don’t think going swimming around 7 times a year fits into that category ,lol.

    Gadgets, dancing and comedies..nice.

    Added you to my blogroll.

    Hi Michelle,

    Just found this stuff after looking up “Jupiter Disaster” on google for the first time in my life. Possibly prompted by the incredibly moving programme on BBC 1 tonight, about the Marchioness the year after.
    I was on the Jupiter, I went to the Sacred Heart in Upminster. I would love the opportunity to talk to anyone who survived that awful night and feel it’s maybe something to do with the ages we all are now.
    Anyway you have my e mail address, please contact me anytime, despite being a bit of an emotional wreck I am pretty normal, as I suspect are most of us.
    Regards, Julie.
    BTW my desert island film is the Lost Boys- how very strange, anything to do with it being of the time I wonder?

    Sorry- not a stalker, I just realised there were a couple more reasons I chose to contact you, I got back from Frisco 3 weeks ago myself and I also grew up in Hornchurch, Essex. Im staying with my family there at the moment. Hows that for coincidence.
