I live in the seaside town of Bray here in Ireland. But I love to vist Dublin and browse all the shops. Of course picking up a Starbucks! I like to collect all sorts of things, Batmobiles 1966 are my weakness...so many!Love Bettie Page and all things vintage Pin-Up. I love to repair and customise toys, see link above. My favourite color is Orange.I am a vegetarian and love all animals especially dogs!

Comment: Thank you for the great letter and the pictures. I love the paper you used. Did you make it yourself? Given my affection for all things Michael J Fox, it was even more special.
Response: Hi..Glad you liked it. No the paper I got from a great paper store here in Dublin. :)

Comment: Thanks for the photo postcard! I was very interested to see what I'd get from my partners compared to what I sent. I was very nature-inspired. I had hoped I'd get something "gritty" or "urban" and you must have read my mind. Lovely!
