Extended Profile
I am a retired Higher Level Teaching Assistant . My favourite subject to teach was of course reading. I would happily sit on the carpet all day and read books to children.
I have just opened a little free library for children outside my house. So exciting - I’ve wanted a little free library ever since I heard about them.
In my spare time I like to get involved in community projects in my village , potter about in my garden and on my allotment, watch village cricket, knit and of course I love to read!
I share my home with a lovely cat called Jackson whom I adopted from Cat's Protection. He always finds the warmest seat in amongst the 8 bookcases and the piles of books waiting to be registered.
My first Convention in 2009 was to New Zealand where I had the most amazing time and met some super people. Since then I have become a convention junkie!
I have been to the annual Conventions in Christchurch, Amsterdam, Washington DC, Gothenburg, Dublin, Melbourne, Athens , Oslo, Bordeaux and Mainz. I was registered and had bought my plane ticket for The Gold Coast Australian Convention but COVID-19 put a stop to that.
In 2015 I organised a Convention in Oxford and in 2021 I led a Zoom Uncon.
I have been to Uncons in Edinburgh, Swindon, Colchester, Leeds, Birmingham, Loughborough, Ipswich and Northampton, Boston, USA and Bordeaux, France.
I didn't make it to Falkirk or to Finland but am very much looking forward to going to Durham and seeing my BookCrossing chums again.
Bookcrossing has been a brilliant part of my life after I found a BC book hanging on the gate of my allotment ( put there by Molyneux). Bookcrossers are the kindest, most generous group of people I have ever come across and guess what - they all love books and don't mind giving them to you after they've read them.
Long may it continue :):):)

For NSS I would love any flower or veg seeds. My favourite chocs are Lindor. Thank you.
