About me

Gender Male
Location London, United Kingdom
Introduction Update: June 2014 - Recovering and rehabilitating from the FND treatment in Lishman unit. February 2014 - Ensconced in Maudsley Hospital for 3 months investigation, treatment and rehab to help reduce non-epileptic seizures and speech impairment due to FND. Slight change then! :-) 2008-2010 Boondocking and shunpiking my way around British Columbia, Canada and the western United States of America in a Dodge Islander "B" class camper, made in Langley, BC 21 years ago and still going strong (the camper, not me). Trying to live my life responsibly, one day at a time, trying never to waste one precious moment and learning every day. I understand now that, having made many mistakes in my life, I have to learn from them, take life as it comes but with some control over where I am going. The world contains a huge variety of people, all with their own success, problems and often far worse than mine. You either succumb and go under, opt out or fight through and make this life mean something. YOU ONLY GET ONE! Please feel free to leave a comment, ask questions or give advice. I'm always open to new ideas.
Interests Wine (too old, gives me a headache now); Women (messed that one up); and Song (yup, still got those in my heart).
Favorite Music Everything from Pop and Rock through Classical, Opera and Gregorian Chants.
Favorite Books The Last Lecture (Randy Pauch).
