Hi,

Thanks to Jasmine's "Small Query" on BBC-Radio 4's QQ MB, I've manoevred around successfully enough to enter the Galaxy, finally, and am looking forward to an interesting chapter in my life.

Í'm female, a Libran (which I mention as a shorthand guide to my general disposition and interests)and I specially enjoy discussions on political, environmental and current affairs. I'm a very keen student of the piano - have been working on it for ages, with still a long way to go, and would welcome any encouragement and help from the Galaxy.- I am also eager for another outlet for creative work and may soon embark on some Creative Embroidery, as I've just found a teacher.

As I'm very new to the world of computers and the internet - so am anxious about viruses and other technical hitches - and don't see where I can enter this particular preference, may I take the opportunity to mention that I'd like to keep my e-mail address "hidden."
