I want everyone who reads this to ask me 3 questions, no more no less. Ask me anything you want. Then I want you to go to your journal, copy and paste this allowing your friends (including myself) to ask you anything.
1) Well, Edinburgh is where I want to be, but if I had to choose another city, I'd go for Bonn in Germany. Beautiful countryside, the river Rhine, great amenities, proximity to Cologne, very easy to get to any place in Europe from there, relatively warm climate. I love that place to bits.
2) Lavender.
3) the piano. Despite ten years' training, I never became really proficient, because my teacher was more bent on picking on faults than on encouraging me to enjoy playing. To this day, I can't play pieces on sight, because I'm too afraid to stumble. With hindsight, I would have required a less perfectionist teacher, somebody who could communicate the joy of music, and somebody who encouraged free expression.
