Wasn't this thing due to start on next Monday? ;D Ok, I'm yours! ;D What's your favorite colour? Black and red - especially combined together - but I do like all the strong colours. Do you have any brothers/sisters? No. Do you have any pets? Not now - I used to have hamsters, canary birds and also a turtle when I was very young. I'd like to keep a dog or a cat, but they'd have to be left alone too much for my tastes, when me and my husband are out working. Maybe I'll be able to "afford" a cat one day...must think about it. What's your favorite beverage? White wine while eating, not-fizzy beverages when I'm thirsty. Well, this was a soft start! Thank you ;D. Who's next?

When did you first realise your love for Roger?I must admit I really got into him (mmh...really strange phrase! ;D) very recently...after searching for The Cross' stuff on the net. A couple of months ago! (Shame ). I began to listen to those songs and re-played all Roger's solo albums for some days...finding new pleasure in doing this. If you're referring to love in a wider sense ;D - well, the 2 things went together! What is your favourite queen item?If you mean merchandising, I don't have any of that. If you mean records, well, among the ones I have, I like a lot the UK 12" picture disc of "It's a hard life"...but my fave has to be Freddie's - his "Mr. Bad Guy" vinyl. I bought it from someone when I was desperate to find those songs, before the box set came out...so it's very dear to me . What other bands do you like?More than any band, I love Billy Joel - but also Dire Straits, Genesis, Beatles, Eurythmics, Toto, and so on. Classic rock bands, more or less - with many exceptions though . Oh...and of course, The Cross ;D.

How old is your hubby? 6 years older than me. Do you want to have children some time? Mmh...I'd say no. What's your profession? Speaker in a local radio! (Not Ga Ga ;D). What's your favorite flower? Not very much into flowers... Do you like macadamia nuts? Err...I don't think I know which type of nuts are those... Ever made a diet? No. I'm not Kate Moss, but I'm not really pimp either ;D. Anyway, I don't eat much. What was the last live act you've seen? Last Tuesday I went and see an italian band called Stadio performing in my town. They're nothing like Queen - much softer than that - but I like them. After the show, I complimented their singer and even kissed him on the cheek ;D. Not Roger-like, but a very nice chap! Any MID tendencies? ;D Well...I love long, dark curly hair, and Brian looked stunning in his Headlong red dress and in the "TMLWKY" video - is that enough? ;D How comes your english is so well? Thank you! Actually, I graduated in english, but learned it mostly from songs/videos and the net. I have a problem with spoken english though - for example, the "GVH1" gives me a hard time because it has got no subtitles, and it's difficult for me to understand what Bri and Rog say about the videos without having the chance of looking at them in the meantime... Have you seen the musical yet? It hasn't landed here yet! Do you think body hair is something that can obsess people? ;D No...but I see I'm wrong! ;D As for Freddie: long or short hair? Short hair, with or without moustache. But I like his hair in the "Somebody to love" video! Wich Roger (from the years) do you like the best? I'll be VERY detailed...from 1983 to 1985!!!

Do you like to watch/play any sport? No! I'm the sofa-type ;D. And the only things I'm really into are music and books... If so which ones? See above. Do you like to read? Yes! Thrillers and poetry (very strange combination : above all. Whose your favourite author? Well, the italian poet Mario Luzi (don't think you know him abroad), and as for thrillers, Agatha Christie, John Dickson Carr, Ellery Queen ;D, Rex Stout. What do you do for a living? See answers above! What's the best thing about your life at the moment? Mmh...having a sweet and caring husband who does his best to please me and bears my Queen-obsession! ;D If you could change one thing about yourself what would it be and why? Physically: wish I had hair like Brian's! ;D Apart from that, I'd like to be less shy in facing new experiences or situations...

Where do you live in italy? In Tuscany. My town is Piombino, in the very middle of the tuscan coast! Do you like the place you live? Quite so. Neither a big nor a small place - lively - not bad. But my favourite town is Florence!!! I love it. Do you remember when you heard Queen for the first time? I'm not sure...but what I do remember is a very funny episode. Once I was listening to the radio and the speaker was all excited about this song called "Bohemian Rhapsody", that he played after praising it a lot. I listened with the greatest attention...and in the end said something like "So THIS is one of the most beautiful songs ever?!?! Do me a favour!" . But I think I was 10 or 11 back then - too young to understand that, and I also had to develop my musical tastes a lot... ;D Did you ever saw them with Freddie live? No... Do you like the lost one, John? ;D Hehe! He's so funny and nice in the footages, and so quiet on stage. Sometimes I feel sorry for him, because everyone seems to forget his existence...Even that "John cam" in the Wembley DVD mostly features Freddie moving around! ;D I'd really like it if he came out of his closet sometimes. What´s your favourite album of Queen? Well, I'm not saying that this is the album with the best songs, but I find myself listening to "The Miracle" a lot...gives me so much energy! And you favourite song? Though as hell! I do have a fave rock song, that is "I want it all" (the middle section with that B&R "duet" makes me JUMP!), with "Don't stop me now" coming very next...But as for the softer numbers, it's hard! "We are the champions" means a lot to me anyway. But also "Somebody to love" and "Boh. Rhap." - and I love a little underrated gem like "My melancholy blues"... P.S.: I'll try to add myself to the "PEB map"! Really nice .

What's your favorite The Cross album? Blue Rock!!! (You know the songs I'm thinking about ;D). Where would you like to go on a holiday? Any place where I could visit medieval castles/fortressess...Or else...London (there's a Queen reason LOL!). Do you have a favorite movie and if yes which one? I'm not very much into movies. What about a favorite actor/actress? See above. But I like Johnny Depp as a figure! ;D Being a huge fan of the TV series FAME, I also love Valerie Landsburg (Doris in the series). Spring, summer, autumn or winter? Spring. Though I also like winter when it's Christmas time! Where did you meet your hubby? Back in '92, I auditioned and joined my first local radio station as a speaker (it was an hobby for me then, not yet a job), and Michele (my hubby) was already on air there...We became friends, and eventually things changed (in about 3 months).

Thanx for giving me a new round Funster! I was missing my couch ;D. If you weren't doing radio what else would you be doing? Something involving languages or writing! Or most likely, a very boring job just for a living, you know . Doing the rest as an hobby. Have you ever broken any bones? No - very lucky! Who was the last person you spoke to on the phone? My mother I think - that was yesterday... Why do fools fall in love? I guess because they're fools...we all are...at certain points of our lives! ;D (Sorry I can't think of a cleverer answer ). And yes, radio is the best!!!
