WOW! 1759 hits on 16th December 2009.

Hi there t-girl admirers. Tell me, someone - Although I've had some wonderful comments about my photos and my profile, no-one has ever written a testimonial. So what do I have to do? Jump through flaming hoops while simultaneously gripping a rose in my teeth and smiling for the camera? :))

To protect some of my friends who have appeared in my photos, I am changing the access to 'family'. Then I will go through all my 'friends' on here and bring them into the 'family'. Why not leave them all as 'friends'? There is a reason for doing it this way, trust me. :)

PLEASE NOTE:
I no longer have time to go through every would-be contact and usually delete them, so if you REALLY want to be friends, then please drop me a message of some sort; I DO read ALL messages and I DO reply!

FAQ: Why does the map show many of my 'indoor' photos are on the main runway of Leeds-Bradford Airport?
A: Well I'm not going to pinpoint our house, am I? (but we can see the planes taking off :) )
Wanda is -
A born-again STRAIGHT* trannie, having a great time exploring femininity.

*NOTE: I said 'straight' - as in hetero. I'm absolutely not attracted to men - only women. If you see pics of me kissing another crossdresser it's because she/he looks, smells, feels and acts like a woman (and so far, I've met only one who meets these criteria). And I'm married. Yes, she doesn't mind a bit - we even go shopping together and roleplay sometimes. But she hasn't seen ALL of my pics. ;)

MUSIC is my main passion (see below) and travel, perhaps, my second. Obviously I'm keen on photography - often mixed with trannery. My travel and 'arty' photos can be seen at www.flickr.com/people/voyageur2010

ADDITIONAL PROFILE copied from TVChix:

Hi! I'm Wanda Bradley, very much an outdoor girl. Into Travel, Photography, Cycling, Music (latin, jazz...) AND stealthily but casually penetrating the women-only world. ;)

'SUN reader' version: I'm a hetero TV so I find it impossible to fancy men. HOWEVER, I do enjoy conversing with intelligent guys who can string a few sentences together and have something worth saying. Then I might be willing to go on a date to a jazz club. Or if they live somewhere interesting, like Paris :) - Alright Bob? ;)

By now, you might just guess that I pass quite easily out there, so NO, I don't want to meet anyone in some dodgy place for sex in their car. But if you can meet passibly dressed, I can take tasteful and hopefully, interesting photos of you - out and about.

These days I'm mainly interested in dressing and behaving in such a way as to pass imperceptibly as a woman, even where you might expect only to find women - I get a great buzz out of that.
So I don't have any other particular 'things' - not stockings (find bras far more interesting), not maid outfits or heavy rubber gear, nor chastity devices (though I'll admit to curiosity). But I am submissive (quite normal then!) and my greatest desire would be to experience physical and emotional domination from two or more strong-willed women - ooh er!

*Favourite Thingies.

Seeing what’s over the horizon. And the next one …. ad infinitum.
Arriving in a strange city…
The Serendipity of Travel (opposite of shit happens)
Cycling around Andalucía. Oh well, Anything in Andalucía! - flamenco, El Paseo ;)
Highway 1 (listening to: General Mojo’s Well-Laid Plan/Gary Burton.)
Yosemite Valley (preferably without the other visitors :) )
Deserts (full of life! - se fav author William Least-Heat Moon)

Un Café Crème, si vous plait (at a Paris pavement café)
Expensive, thick-cut marmalade.
Green & Black’s 70% dark chocolate. (one piece at a time, mind).

and of course - tight, tight corsets!
Remarkable, remarkably minute technology – like my Walkman MP3 and my Canon Ixus 800.
Remarkably fine, old technology: A Stanier Pacific in full charge. (nostalgia ain’t what it used to be).
Bianchi bikes (never had one though :( )

ARTY STUFF:

MUSIC: Miles Davis’s ‘Kind of Blue’ / 50 years old this year an still the best selling jazz album.
Art Blakey, Charles Mingus, Roland Kirk et al – for making the ‘60s a time to feel alive!
Chuck E Weiss for re-defining 'Cool' back to it's original, hip, meaning. (You know what I Idi Amin?)
All of the great arrangers: Billie Stayhorn, Pete Rugulo, Gil Evans ...
Vladimir Horowitz
Prokofiev / ‘Romeo and Juliet’. LSO/Previn recording.

Songs? You want songs? I don't do 'songs' usually, but two that apply to me are:
Chuck E Weiss's '(Every Day)It Rains on Me' and Tom Waits' 'I Don't Wanna Grow Old'. (Who does!)

FILMS: Fellini’s greatest film: La Strada (maybe the only time Anthony Quinn will have you in tears).
BOOKS: Desert Solitaire /Edward Abbey and ‘Blue Highways’ /William Least Heat-Moon (ask me about them - go on!)
PHOTOGRAPHERS: Bob Carlos Clarke, John Swannell, Ansel Adams ....

POETRY quotations:

Dylan Thomas:

Rage, rage into the night
against the dying of the light. (One for us older girls ;) )

James Elroy Flecker:
We travel not for trafficking alone
By hotter winds our fiery hearts are fanned
For lust of knowing what should not be known
We make the Golden Journey to Samarkand

Fav? NOT!:

The so-called ‘Music Industry’ – for reducing people’s expectations to zilch.
'Easy Listening' (what's the point?)
‘Favourite Things’ – John Coltrane (too much!)
‘Favorites’ (aargh!) - also; ‘start over’ (another Microsoft-ism) 'alot' and 'could of'

People who can’t write in sentences and go on and on like this without using any punctuation and when they do decide to stop they leave a space then a full stop and start again without capitalising .like this.

- and finally - Matthew bastard Parris, for his anti-cyclist rant in Jan 2008. Never forgiven him.

End of rant.

I enjoy good conversation, humour, music and travel, wild walks, cycling for travel, writing and photography - as well as being girlie!. (Mixing them can be tricky, but fun! :) )
I have a science degree, a postgrad. management diploma and I'm a qualified photographer and IT trainer (a regular Jill of all trades!).
You won’t find me in the Chat Rooms as I prefer to write and receive a decent conversational letter.

My Photography:
I use a Nikon D50 SLR for indoor and location shots, and a Canon Ixus 800 IS digital compact for travel/handbag use. As an experienced photographer, I do try to take interesting pics with appropriate backgrounds. See more here: [link='http://www.flickr.com/photos/wandabra/']Flickr Wanda Bradley[/link] I hope you like!
** Anyone want to join me in daytime photoshoots? **

MUSIC is my other main passion, playing as well as listening, (kit drums and latin percussion) and I'm not talking about some 'here-today-forgotten-tomorrow' media-driven kind of crap. I’m talking about music for musicians; the kind that hits you right in the guts.
Don't care whether its classical, jazz, Cuban, avante-garde, kletzmer, township, Sephardic-Moorish, flamenco, rock, blues .....

You want names? Well here's just a few: Miles Davis, Brian Eno, Bob Marley, Manu Dibango, Tom Waits and Chuck E Weiss, Suns of Arqa, Belinda Sykes/Joglaresa, Frank Zappa, Fleetwood Mac (some), Joe Zawinul, Bill Frizell, Carl Orff, Prokofiev, ....

Did you really read all that? Then you're my kind of person - write and tell me about .... anything!
