The Hunt for the Invisible Octopus

ABOUT ME

a broad broad - sometimes blue, always green, often orange - inclined towards goofy grins - stripey, never spotty - a wanderer - a misfit - a riddle wrapped in an enigma dribbled into an egg timer -

Interests

there are 2 things that make me most happy - my bicycle and my saxophone. i love music - particularly blues, soul, ska and reggae - and love to jam, whether it be with guitar, flute or the kitchen sink; and bicycles have been my life and work for years. i m a decent bike mechanic, but then you have to be, on the road, its a great way to learn how to fix bikes with twigs, paper clips, and string - -
i also love the water - swimming, canoeing - i have always lived near the sea and can watch the waves for hours -
Total bookworm. I read all the time. I also write..
I love the circus !! I know some basic juggling with balls or clubs, trapeze, acrobatics - and FIRE - i perform fire-breathing and fire-swallowing - also dance with fire poi -
Love yoga and can teach. Also can give a mean massage.
