About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to buy more cereals in the morning

ABOUT ME

Chris - Is Me.

Tim - Is in his own words "cunning, sexy, handsome, intelligent, smart, witty, charming, collects rocks."

Will - Owns his own poncho. Was absent at the time of filling this in.

PHILOSOPHY

Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable.
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think you under the table.
David Hume could out-consume
Wilhelm Freidrich Hegel,
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel.

There's nothing Nietzsche couldn't teach ya'
'Bout the raising of the wrist.
SOCRATES, HIMSELF, WAS PERMANENTLY PISSED...

John Stuart Mill, of his own free will,
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.
Plato, they say, could stick it away;
Half a crate of whiskey every day.
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle,
Hobbes was fond of his dram,
And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart: "I drink, therefore I am"
Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed;
A lovely little thinker but a bugger when he's pissed!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well, we tell you we need somewhere to stay and you say Ok. I suppose if anyone happens to be in England in the future we may be able to return the favour.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not a lot, but we are getting there.

Interests

The usual stuff. Playing various musical instruments between us, sports, traveling obviously.

Will likes baking. He will bake you a cake if you let us stay.

Music, Movies, and Books

Between us we cover most music. Will and I both play guitar, piano, bass, harmonica, that kind of thing so are into your usual rock and pop. Tim on the other hand is a pretty mean floutist and pianist and very into his Jazz.
