Hi, this is me, Alison, the owner of the website. Please look at my other pages, where you will find more pictures of my daughters, Clare (22) and Heather (19), and also my boyfriend, Allan. Also please feel free to visit my other website, 'Halloween'.
I have many interests, including reading, especially mysteries, ghost stories and anything with a good plot. Also I enjoy writing short stories and I have a few of them on my Halloween website. I tried a little dabbling in poetry too, but I don't think I'm very good. I love anything to do with nature and animals, especially my cat, Baby. I am very keen on photography and art, though purely as an amateur.
I have varied taste in music, and enjoy anything with a good melody.
As for TV, I love British crime dramas, some good US dramas, documentaries, comedies and Big Brother, which Heather got me addicted to, not usually the kind of programme I watch, hehe.
I also have very varied taste in movies, particularly old gothic horrors, such as the old Hammer ones, thrillers, comedies, sci-fi etc.
I also like day trips, and I try to get a steam train ride at least once a year. I also used to enjoy walking through our nearby woods to a little cafe, and when the girls were younger we would visit the playground there. I still go to the cafe, but dont often walk through the woods unless I am with either Heather or Clare, and I have been with them once each in 2009, and once with both of them, which is always a treat.
One of the high spots of the year is usually my birthday when I get a day trip with Heather, Clare and Allan - a rare treat to be with all three of them... but this year I was lucky enough to have two day trips with them, as we went to Alton Towers earlier in the year, and for my birthday we had a lovely day in York. I also took Clare and Heather to Blackpool for a three nights just before my birthday in July.
