Any dislikes?: People who get upset at other people speaking in Welsh.
Are you into fandom?: Not so much these days - I don't say 'never' but....
What does your day to day look like?: I don't work at the moment, but I teach preachers how to preach - so I do a lot of reading of theology, especially inclusive theology. I'm also a town councillor in West Wales, so I do write about politics from time to time. I sleep a lot.

What movies do you enjoy?: Bond
Do you play games? If so, what do you like?: Nope
If you like to read, what do you read?: Mostly non-fiction these days.
What kind of music do you listen to?: Currently: Dolly Parton, George Michael, Ed Sheeran, Debussy, The Outside track, Kate rusby, Tom Paxton.

Journal & Friending
What do you post about?: mostly my life, and I try to post about Christianity in an inclusive way, and behind cut tags. My journal is behind a f-lock mostly due to force of habit.
How often do you update?: most days
What do you look for in a DW friend?: someone that can write, that has a life different from mine.
What do you like to read about on your friends page?: slices of life
Do you have any kind of friending policy?: Not really - I'm very low drama.
Do you have any deal-breakers?: Transphobia (i.e. if you think transwomen are not women, you are not welcome), Anti-Semitism (and I do try to call people out on it), anti-LGBT, racism etc.
Is there anything others should know before friending?: I post in Welsh from time to time, very occasionally in French. I'm married to a Welshman, I'm originally from Yorkshire, I don't have children, I'm interested in people, and I try to comment as and when I can.

Anything else? If you think cats shouldn't go outside, and get evangelical about it, then I'm not the person for you. Ditto on Evangelical Atheism and strong conservative opinions. I identify as liberal/progressive, European and inclusive.

Now that I read your comment, I am realllly excited that you added me because Wales is such an interesting country to me and I think I will enjoy reading about life there. I have a few online friends over there and I definitely plan on visiting some day.
