About Me

A Brit but did the formative thing in Coppell , Texas.
I'm just south of a large town called Swindon which I'm desperatly trying to vacate :)
However it's not all bad - it does boast one of the more fun road systems
Can't say I spend an amazing amount of time here - I should really make more of an effort.
Oh, if anyone wants a tour of the UK/England just ask. More than happy to drive/show anyone around - it's a shame to just see London!! Plenty of room at the inn too.

My Interests

  • Driving - lots and lots of driving. I spend more on gas than most people spend on mortgages.
  • Going out - anywhere. li Sleeping - Try me after 11AM
  • Travelling - Esp when Visiting my friends! Thanks to my travelling iI am a proud owner of a British Airways Gold Card
  • Taking embarrassing photographs...lots
  • I'd like to meet:

    Someone who wants to do something right now, tonight or at least soon :)

    Music:

  • Electronic (well, most)
  • Good Rock (Springsteen, etc...)
  • Progressive Rock (Moody Blues!!)
  • Barry White
  • Classical (Gershwin, Holst, Puccini, James Horner)
  • Not "RnB" - why?
    (begin rant) It doesn't make sense....mainly because in the UK I don't see that when driving though villages like Stanton Fitzwarren that listening to boyz talking about pimping and bling very relative. Not when Mrs. Brown is busy watering her rhotodendrun. West Side indeed! (end rant)
  • Movies:

  • The Harlem Globetrotters on Gilligan's Island - classic.
  • Dr. Zhivago
  • Assault on Precinct 13 (the original)
  • If...
  • Fiddler on the Roof
  • Dr. Strangelove
  • Mr Smith goes to Washington
  • Lawrence of Arabia
  • Sneakers
  • Anything else with a good story.

    Television:

    I got rid of my television. In the UK it is a) expensive and b) awful. Not as bad as in the US but bad enough. It gives me an excuse to go over to other peoples' houses to watch it.

    Books:

    Anything by John Christopher. Road maps. Travelogues.
