About me

Gender Male
Occupation Mining Engineer
Location British West Grombooliland
Introduction Wry, angry and sometimes deranged outbursts from a thirty-something, ex-pat Englishman living in what was once known as The Colonies. His politics could politely be described as classic liberal, though the term "right wing loon" has been used by unkinder souls. He enjoys shooting things and takes a childish delight in massive explosions. Big or fast machinery impresses him especially if it is old. He also enjoys the pursuit of beautiful women, though he is rarely successful. Kept somewhere approaching sanity by regular doses of medication from Nurse and happy by sureptitious glasses of Bushmills from his faithful attendant, Mzi, he will try and edify with his thoughts on the world, politics, the mining industry or anything else that catches his eye.
Interests Politics, England, liberty, shooting, South Africa, rugby, mining, blowing things up
Favorite Movies Kelly's Heroes, Whisky Galore, The original Italian Job, The Blues Brothers, The Yangtzee Incident
Favorite Music Baroque Classical, Blues, Ska, Satanic Death Metal, not Hippity Hop, not Gansta Rap

What would you wear for camouflage if you were hiding in a gingerbread house?

If I thought I was in a gingerbread house I'd probably be wearing a strait jacket
