We had a lovely holiday in Bodmin, Cornwall. A wet but very enjoyable few days.
Here are some photo's of our time there.

About Me
I am Julie, I am 39 years young. I am mother to 3 beautiful children. I have a husband and I am owned by two dogs and a hamster :)
Music
Music plays a huge role in my home, all three of my children love music, the two older kids play guitar, the littlest wants to learn bass guitar and my husband is a font of all knowledge where music is concerned. We listen to all genres of music in our home and people who visit will often comment that it must be difficult for me to hear what I am listening to considering someone else is playing heavy metal in another room and in another room someone is listening to Fallout Boy. Funnily enough I can always hear my stuff fine, I just zone out the rest :)
Ok to my favourites, you might be surprised at the vast contrast of my choices Marilyn Manson, Panic! at the disco, various soul and motown, most disco ... getting my drift? I also listen to classical music to relax and about the only music I steer clear of is dance/rave music - yuk!
Movies
Ahhh one of my favourite subjects. I have a large and ever growing movie collection which for the most part consists of the Horror genre. I am a particular fan of the old Hammer horrors and I love Dracula, he'd be my movie hearthrob.
TV
When I watch tv, which really isn't that often it will be to relax and wind down and get right away from reality like with a British soap ;)
I watch Big Brother when it's aired, Xfactor and 'I'm a celebrity get me out of here' sometimes.
What I don't do, is watch the news, like I said I want to escape not concern myself.
Books
I read alot! Stephen King is a favourite author as is Graham Joyce, James Herbert, Dean Koontz and Peter Straub (see a theme forming here?). I have been known to also get stuck into a good detective style thriller too as in Patricia Cornwell or Ruth Rendell but actually I will read just about anything I can get my hands on.
NOW READING:
Needful things by Stephen King
Likes
Autumn, red wine, movies, music, the colour red, shoes, wearing pyjamas, storms, the West Country here in the UK, the New Forest, you :)
Dislikes
Snails have to be number one, I hate to say I dislike any living thing but these things petrify me :( Rudeness, arrogance and cruelty are the human facets that make me sad.
Hobbies
Reading, playing the sims and I write fiction and occassionally poetry but not the deep stuff, mine almost always ends up comical.
Here's something else I like doing :)
My horror pages
Vices
I gave up cigarettes two years ago and sometimes still miss them, I drink too much wine, bite my nails and I absolutely cannot resist buying any cute pair of shoes I see.
Zodiac Sign
Taurus

Days like these - A fun poem by me
Thursday, August 21, 2008, 06:05 PM GMT [General]
Days like these I'm sure that you have days like these When nothing goes quite right When the dog chews up the daily post And the kids do nowt but fight.
I'm sure that you have days like these When the toast you grill is black When the tea you drink has leaves in And milk is the one thing that you lack.
I'm sure that you have days like these When the laundry comes out pink When you turn on the tap and get an overflow And find there's Lego in the sink.
I'm sure that you have days like these When everything you wear makes you look fat When your hair just won't lie down straight And you've no occasion for a hat.
I'm sure that you have days like these When you argue with your boss When your work just isn't up to scratch And you just couldn't give a toss.
I'm sure that you have days like these If you do, remember all that I've said And if your day starts out like this Sod ‘em all and go straight back to bed.
Going away

I never realised that Cornwall had such a wealth of things to do but I can't wait and I hope to have lots of photo's when I return. Take care till then my friends.
Speak soon x
Fresh start

Ok I have decided that it's time for action, I read some of my recent past posts and saw how depressing they were so I have culled my blog. I wanted to remove all of the blog entries but that has to be done one at a time and I don't know that I have the patience for that at the moment, I imagine it will be therapeutic though :)
Fresh start from here.
Speak again when I return from my break x Blessings for Beltane to everyone

I am so very sorry that this cannot be an individual wish to you all, I value each and every friend that I have made here on covenspace but on top of problems at work in the form of being a man down and having to cover - meaning having to work too many bloody hours! I have contracted flu! Twice in as many months can you believe?! Anyway please excuse my lack of contact, I will make it up to you all but for now I just want to sleep Woe is me :( So have a wonderful Beltane my friends xxx
