3. Drink - Gin and Tonic before dinner, heavy on the G and light on the T, and red wine for the rest of the evening. During the day I'm a real tea bag and make endless mugs of it.
4. Band/Singer - Stevie Nicks. She's an inspiration to me with her unique voice and her poetry. I once travelled from London to Dallas, went to her concert there that night, and then flew back the next day. Forget the carbon footprint - it was my 40th and I wanted to see my rock goddess!
5. Actor - Kevin Spacey, James McAvoy, Daniel Day-Lewis. It's hard to pick one from those three. And for the women I'd have to say Judi Dench, Helen Mirren, and Kate Blancett.

10. Activity - Writing and being with interesting people.
11. Things to collect - Well I'm not into antiques or anything like that so I guess I'd have to say books, music albums, and odd socks. I seem to collect those all the time and cannot unpack my suitcase withhout finding at least one!
