How are you? I live in the northside of Brisbane, Australia. I am a 34 year old SAHM of 2 fantastic kiddlies. William is 8 and Alexandra is 6. They are both in school now and apart from being a doting wife to Ian I am a social butterfly. I love to organise fundraisers, go to the movies, spend time with my wonderful family and friends, play with my dogs and last but definately not least HANDMADE CRAFTING. I have always done a craft - a few to mention over the years are: t-shirt painting, silk painting, making dolls houses and furniture (when I was little) and then completing some minatures. I used to cross stitch until I was cross eyed, I love paper crafts, making things with my kids (collages, decorations, cards and now I'm teaching them to sew), sewing, quilting, patchwork. I was a creative memories consultant for a while and continued with scrapbooking for 4 years (I still love it but I want something more). I recently found my love again of sewing (hand sewing to be more accurate). I have made a few things and am getting right into it again thanks to my darling husband who has helped my transform the study/guest room into a "studio" for me. My darling friend Linda (Lillycottage.typepad.com)owns a shabby chic/handmade craft store and she has inspired me to find my inner artist. Hope to get to know you soon. Kisses Trish x

PLAY ANYTHING SO LONG AS IT'S LOUD!!!!!!!!

I have a varied taste of music: Rock Funk Punk Pop Country Crooners Classical Operatic

I was so deprived of music when I was little (Mum always says it gives her a headache) that I will listen to anything and everything - example I am crazy about Tony Bennett, Good Charlotte, Robbie Williams, Judy Garland, Doris Day, Linkin Park, U2, Police, Snow Patrol - can you see what I'm saying - EVERYTHING.

I love reading.

Favourite books would have to be the Malory Towers series by Enid Blyton. Loved it forever (well since I was 10).

Fav all time movie would be a toss up between Stand By Me and Goodbye Mr Tom.

Seinfeld, Seinfeld, Seinfeld, S-E-I-N-F-E-L-D is my very very favourite - watch it almost everyday and never tire from it.

I also love English tv shows - Inspector Morse, Frost, Waking the Dead, Eastenders.
