1. You are a real life friend and I wanted to keep up with your goings on!
2. The colour red, comics, cocktails
3. Fiesty intelligent conversations
4. Sitting in Preston Park at Pride with you surrounded by friends and partners
5. Did you apply for the Lecturer position you LJ'd about ages ago. Enquiring minds want to know!
6. Loving Ducks! They are so cute!

1. I met you at cocktails, and you seemed lovely. We met in Preston Park and you seemed lovely still. People should always friend other lovely people, it spreads the love and the world needs more of that right now I think!
2. Red and white in balance.
3. Swishy feminine dresses that are soft and romantic, that yet are filled with a strong will and a desire/ability to sort it all out.
4. Being dragged around Preston Park as all the lovely, pretty people fell in love with your pup! He definitely had many many fans that day.
5. When did you discover your love of/affinity for horse riding?
6. Your Oscar dog icon. You two so are so joined in my memory that thinking of one means thinking of the other.

Thank you ~smiles~ I have very happy memories of you at both cocktails and Preston Park...

I started riding as a child, then pestered my parents into getting me a pony (which took years but was worth it!). Then I had a long break (after a nasty fall) and have only really started riding regularly again in the last 3 years. I love it because it is one of the very few things I do where the doing of it takes over and the rest of my brain switches off, if that makes sense? I think it's because it's very intuitive and relational, I get a similar feeling being around babies. Plus it's great exercise and good for overall confidence - returning to the saddle as an adult has made me deal with my tendency to nervousness and insecurities, I'm learning that I can do x, but only if I believe I can (horses are very good at picking up on lack of conviction!).

1. Because you are Ed and you had a livejournal. How could I resist? *grin*
2. Rich red/brown/gold brocade. Just because!
3. Your gentleness, because so few people are.
4. Meeting you for the first time at the Jorene Celeste in Kentish Town and not being able to a) hear you and b) understand you. It's set the pattern for meeting up with you ever since. It always takes me a good couple of days to reaclimatise to the accent and the volume. Not unpleasant or given unwillingly, but requires a definite investment of time.
5. What are you waiting to have happen, before you can act?
6. The unhappy darlek, because it says it all without any help at all.

1. Because I was delighted to find you online after meeting you such a long time ago. Once I knew who you were online, I couldn't friend you fast enough.
2. Velvet, corsets, Ruby red glass
3. Your fireyness, your straightforwardness and the twinkle in your eye.
4. Lady SC presenting a weapon of mass destruction to a bunch of boys and watching them nearly pee their pants with joy! Sigh! Boys and their toys! *wink*
5. Do you enjoy your job? If not entirely, what would you rather be doing?
6. The Scottish Widow, as it really looks like you are up to something and it could either be really nice or really naughty! But one just can't be certain .... which.

I do mostly enjoy my job though as with everything else there are peaks and troughs and some days can be a bit grim (though these don't put me off particularly).
Though it has not always been the case, I think that if I wasn't a science geek then I would probably be some kind of complentary/holistic therapist. I still might one day even if it is a side line. I am too drawn to it not to tinker at the very least.
