CURRENT MISSION

Try as many different things as I can, meet new people, go to new places and enjoy as many experiences as I can, without serious injury or memory loss!

ABOUT ME

I'm always on the lookout for something new to learn, whether it's something to do with work or just how to cook something different. I like exploring new places, the odd bit of aimless wandering and some touristy things when I'm somewhere new. I haven't gotten to do nearly as much travelling as I'd like but I've gotten to a few countries around Europe in the last few years and also some near bits of the States.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't kick small animals. Or big animals. Just don't kick animals!

Closely guard the laminated book of dreams.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'll watch any sort of half intelligent thriller or comedy generally.

Any music except that dance/trance/electronic stuff. Can't say I'm a huge fan of hip-hop either, pretty much everything else though.

I usually have a few books on the go at any one time, at the minute it's a Christopher Brookmyre novel. Fav authors include Terry Pratchett, Stephen King, Douglas Adams, Iain Banks, Philip K Dick, James Herbert.
