Introduction"All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible" — T E Lawrence
InterestsGeneral, wide, varied, miscellaneous. Dabbler in much, expert in zilch, ever optimistic.
Favorite moviesBrave, Ratatouille, Keeping Mum, High Noon, Pirates of the Caribbean, Ice Age(s), Year in Provence, Shrek(s), Muppet Christmas Carol, Chocolat, Johnny English, V for Vendetta, High Noon ... comedy & escapism, mostly.
Favorite musicNoisy marches, some movie themes, soft, loud, gentle, vibrant; baroque, anything with Valkyries — but please, no Rap (which was named for rhyming purposes). Nana Mouskouri makes me tingle~!
Favorite booksI like books to be either provocative, instructional, escapist or to reinforce my prejudices. I devour non-fiction but my all-time favourite author is Terry Pratchett. Humour rules, always.
