      Spend the morning making crepes and then eat them in the garden on a patchwork blanket with some Wordsworth poetry and Edith Piaf on a tape recorder. Lie down and bask in it all, pick some flowers and thread them through your hair.

      Go through old envelopes, take the pretty stamps off and make a mosaic with them on some crepe paper and stick it up on your wall. Make tea in a willow-pattern pot, pour it into three pretty saucers and have a tea-party with imaginary characters from your favourite piece of literature.

      Then have a long bubble bath, hold a conch shell to your ear if posible and pretend you're in an ocean. Tell yourself a few fairytales, and then pull the plug.

      Then sit down with a pile of silent movies from the 1920s, black-and-white melodramas and watch them for hours. Or as an alternative just write, write, write to your heart's content.

      Haha, I lead a ridiculous life. ;) xxx

      Why thank you, this is so sweet! Oh, I fear I'm not very good at poetry but I shall try, and perhaps post it on my blog. :)

      Sometimes, I am pathetic and emotional and the slightest thing will turn me into a juddering heap of tears. At other times, I sit there like an immoveable statue. I confuse myself.

      Erm; just let me check the windowsill, that's usually where just-read books accumulate.
      Ah yes - The Brothers Karamazov by Dostoyevsky.

      No, the picture isn't me, I just chose it because I like it.
      And sorry, but I'm rather averse to describing how I look. It's subjective; and besides, looks don't matter all that much. x

      Haha oh dear, I know it's rather controversial of me to dislike it. Whilst conceptually, it was quite beautiful, it sort of destroyed 'Swan Lake' for me, which is a ballet I have quite a strong connection to. (Not as a dancer, for I cannot dance!) I don't know; it was needlessly visceral in parts and was a good film, but does not deserve to triumph so prestigiously. xx

      I do, but it is completely devoid of lists! :) When I've made one I'll post a list on my blog. xxx

    20. Sarah

      Oh, so many options! I would love the 1920s or '30s so I could be stuck in a Charlie Chaplin film - or a Dodie Smith novel! :) Or the Victorian times, because of the wonderful literature that emerged from there - I could meet Hardy and Forster and Dickens. Or the 1960s, in France - I fear this is severely influenced by viewing of 'Les Parapluies de Cherbourg.'
