Wish list time folks...
1 - my sore right knee gettting better
2 - my wine rack never being empty
3 - winning a small'ish amount of money on the lottery > £500 < £1M
4 - Sean Connery being only 50 years old
5 - flowers not dying
1 - Humankind growing up out of 'God', 'Allah' & religious fixation over night
2 - The world suddenly not being so hopelessly and dangerously over-populated
3. - People waking up to consumer power, environmentally friendly purchasing etc
4. - Being 10 years old again, then making my own decisions about my upbringing
5 - My contemporary art small business taking off :uhoh: (very concerned and stressed at the mo')
First instincts proving to be as correct as I hope they are.......
Wolves staying up........
The guy I'm renting from thats just come back from abroad NOT wanting the flat back and causing me to be both homeless and without net access for this place !
Again, first instincts...
1. Making Mr Writer and James the same person. James wants Mr W's sense of self confidence and assurance.
2. A family member never being ill again.
3. Have my time at university again and lose all sense of self consciousness.
To know what I know now when I was 16!

1. Being a mum
2. Getting my dream job
That's all really, I would be happy with that!
-to have enough money to move even deeper into the countryside and spend my days contemplating the wonder of it all
-to have at least one book published and receive reasonable reviews (I know, it shouldn't matter what others say, hubris is a terrible thing)
-to die before my children (the reverse is my worst nightmare)
-to see my children embrace art, music, literature and the simple joy of being.
-to have just enough (i've never wanted money for money sake) to be able to leave my job and 'get by' doing a variety of 'odd' jobs and projects that would satisfy me and put something back into this wonderful world.
-never to lose the sense of awe and wonder at what surrounds me
that'll do for the old Artificer
