| Introduction | Hello, I'm Hayfella. I live in the gorgeous Lake District and have been running since 1980. Now retired, I am the curator of a national collection of soft-shield ferns in a gardens near Windermere. I am also a 'dogsbody' who helps with the training of the Lake District Mountain Rescue Search Dogs. |
| Interests | Fell running, hillwalking, drawing & painting, writing 'poetry' (or doggerel, depending on your viewpoint), training mountain rescue search dogs, ferns, playing guitar |
| Favorite Movies | Local Hero, Juno, Casablanca, Some Like It Hot. |
| Favorite Music | Kate Rusby, Laura Marling, Richard Thompson, British Sea Power, Nic Jones, Billy Bragg, Gillian Welch, Martin Simpson to name just a few. Basically I've got a sort of lyric-driven folky-vibe thing going on. |
| Favorite Books | Too many to say. On my desert island I'd have a boxed set of Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey-Maturin series and a biochemistry textbook! |
