What and when was your first messageboard post?

I introduced myself in a thread on 12th of June 2006 I think

Who was the first messageboarder you met?

I haven't met any but I stood right next to Jane at the Carlisle gig tho neither of us realised it at the time.

What is the most stupid thing you've done at a gig?

Taking my camera with no batteries in it? Thinkin' I could hack it up front at my first Lostprophets gig in 4" heels in the mosh pit...needless to say I took a step or two back, after I'd picked myself off the floor...twice! Standing outside next to the tour bus waiting for the band to come out of the venue for sigs/pix after the last Lostprophets gig wearing only a vest top(and jeans of course) in the middle of December in the sleet surrounded by drunks and people getting beat up...to no avail I might add! Dunno, nothing outrageously exciting....so far! My daughter and I were gonna wear flashing rabbit ears at the Embrace Carlisle gig but we chickened out thinkin' the people behind us might not have been too impressed.

What other music do you like?

Embrace, Lostprophets, HIM, Iron Maiden and Bruce Dickinson, Delays and Hoobastank are my ultra faves.

Whitesnake, David Coverdale, Foo Fighters, Darren Hayes, Nightwish, Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, Delays, Evanescence, Journey, Steve Perry, Pat Benetar, Gotthard, Rainbow, Blackmores Night, Ronnie James Dio, Joe Lynn Turner, The Police, Dragonforce, Nickelback, RHCP, Thin Lizzy, Gary Moore, Snowy White, Van Halen, Scorpions, AC/DC, Train, Heart, Snow Patrol, All American Rejects, Within Temptation, Crowded House, Del Amitri, Thunder, Goo Goo Dolls, Rooster, The Calling, Big Country, Keith Urban, Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora, Lonestar, Styx, Tommy Shaw, Survivor, Deep Purple, Bruce Guthro, Rush, Toto, Foreigner, Lou Gramm, Eagles, Don Henley, Tenacious D, Capercaille, Runrig. Just about anything that rocks really!

What are your favourite albums?

Apart from Embrace....Start Something - Lostprophets, Love Metal - HIM, Brave New World - Maiden, The Chemical Wedding/Tyranny Of Souls - Bruce Dickinson, You See Colours - Delays, Every Man For Himself - Hoobastank, Wide Awake In Dreamland - Pat Benetar, Raised On Radio - Journey, Into The Light - David Coverdale, One By One - Foo Fighters

What are you currently listening to?

If I'm not listening to Embrace it would be a safe bet to say Lostprophets.

What is your favourite Jelly Baby?

Who is your favourite Neighbours character?

It was Bouncer...shows how long it was since I watched it. I prefered Prisoner Cell Block H or The Sullivans

Most likely to say…

Yes please, I will have another glass of wine/rum & coke/Jack & coke

Least likely to say…

No thanks I won't have another glass of wine/rum & coke/Jack & coke

Cricket - good or evil?

Depends whether I'm sufferin' insomnia or not.

What was the last thing you ate?

A grape

What did you want to be when you were growing up?

A vet, international showjumper or rock goddess....never achieved any 'cept in my dreams!

If you were having a dinner party, which member of Embrace would you want to help in the kitchen?

I'd stick all of them in the kitchen and then sit back to be waited on. :D I dunno, I think I would like to see Steve serve me in full waiters outfit, Rich in a pinny whippin' up some culinary delight, Mike up to his elbows in Fairy and pink marigolds and I'd stick Mickey on the piano in the corner! ;) And since I can't think of anything for Danny to do he can be my escort for the night, maybe do the odd bit seranadin' with the red rose etc! LOL What more could a girl ask?

Cats or dogs?

Can't decide, I love them both but cats are more low maintainence which is always a plus. I have a huge cuddley German Shepherd, Khara(see pic), who is my babe tho, love her to bits.

Heaven is…

A night filled with good music, chocolate or chips and alcohol or see the dinner party answer, pretty much the same thing really!

Hell is…

Being ill
