Introduction Too much to say here. I love Life!! The ups more than the downs! who doesn't? Among the "ups" are gardening, now my work since I turned 40. "The Blues,"soundtrack of my youth and ever advancing middle age. ( I saw Jimi Hendrix at the Isle of Wight Festival in 1970!!) Glasses that are full, half full or quarter full but not empty. Animals, anything that has a natural expression. The best "up" is being a parent and grandparent. Included in the "UP" zone is the satisfaction of a job well done. That includes a day off during which I have 'done' nothing except indulge. (Music, maybe a drink or two, a walk or even a trip to a museum!) Minister of Nothing PRG
Interests People, they fascinate me. Plants and their amazing instinct to survive. They haven't gone nuclear yet! Worms and their amazing abilities. MUSIC. Since my early days and a stint or two with local Rock/R&B bands in the sixties.(The Loopy Sax Player!) Live Theatre. from Shakespeare to Pantomime. A game of Rugby Football, Cricket, squash or tennis. (nowadays only to watch. (I have the 'T' shirt the video and the memories of the trips to hospital!!) The Female of the Species. Much to my cost, joy and sadness. ( Currently Joy!!!) Travel and all the places, people, culture and language that I can get my brain around. (It varies, sometimes a lot, other times not very much but still fun!!)
Favorite Movies Some but really I don't like to spend too much time indoors.
Favorite Music Joe Bonamassa - Gov't Mule - Eric Clapton - Steve Vai - Stevie Ray Vaughn - Robin Trower
Favorite Books Dennis Wheatly, Patricia Cornwell, I am still reading a book on the marvels of underground London that I started two years ago. ( too much time outdoors) Finally finished this on the 30/04/2008!! Currently looking for the next 2 year read something short and not too intellectually challenging! Ha Ha!
