"Music is my life, but not all of my life is music." (yoinked from some clever person) I love hills and beaches and nature and learning new things and spontanaeity and travelling and beer and philosophy and penguins and being alone and being with lots of people and watching Sex and the City in French and reading and driving a long way and being outside of West Sussex. I love Paris, without doubt my favourite city in the world...so far. "An artist has no home in Europe, except in Paris" Nietzsche

Don't watch TV, only Hollyoaks. I'm addicted, it's cutting edge stuff. I've recently rekindled my lifelong passion for F1, Schumacher has retired so it's safe to go back in the water. Also BTCC. I am going to have Leon Haslam's babies. I'd like to watch the cricket on the telly but our Sky has gone rubbish and I can't. I have DVDs of Peter Kay which I could watch over and over all day long and they're still funny. Max&Paddy's Road to Nowhere, Phoenix Nights, That Peter Kay Thing. Also Black Books, Stella Street, Derek & Clive, Top Gear Box Set, Mitchell and Webb Situation, Mighty Boosh, Scrubs, League of Gentlemen, Green Wing, Peep Show, Brass Eye, Only Fools and Horses, Alan Partridge, Smallville, The Day Today, Look Around You, My Name is Earl and Monkey Dust. "Mr Hoppy!"
Best book in the world -in my opinion- is The Godfather by Mario Puzo, for this reason I can't watch the film. Currently reading Margrave of the Marshes by John Peel. I started it ages ago, but I've just realised that it's really funny and not boring like Bob Dylan's autobiography. (controversial!)
My hero is Stevie Wonder. He is the king. .. width="425" height="350" .. I also have a lot of respect for Ray Mears and Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall. If only it was that simple.....
