About Me

Watch this space and I'll write this up some time soon. In a nutshell, I'm living and working in London (but for how much longer?!) MySpace Layouts

My Interests

Sun, sea, sand (they do count as interests!), sport (everything), athletics, running, being outdoors, photography, producing music, travelling. And people. They're the most interesting.

I'd like to meet:

Someone who can tell me how to make this section disappear from my page....Also anyone from school/university/life I didn't keep in touch with but should have!

Music:

Josh Ritter - The Animal Years is pretty much on repeat 24/7 at the moment..... otherwise Modest Mouse/Get Cape Wear Cape Fly/Counting Crows/Ben Harper/Ben Folds for chilled out times; can't beat System of a Down or Foo Fighters for something more upbeat; love gigs but when we go out properly it's trance all the way... Armin, Markus Schultz, Ferry are up there as my favourites; am also well up for some good funky house. Favourite night - Gallery at Turnmills, if that helps. Favourite DJ to listen to... probably Tiesto - the stuff from way back (2000). Favourite tunes... Exceptionally Beautiful by Loop Control, Force of Gravity by BT, Electra by the Digital Blonde, Marcel Woods Cherry Blossom, Mario Lopez Sound of Nature.... I'm sure I'll think of more

Movies:

Sin City, amazing. Donnie Darko. Lost in Translation. The Notebook. Withnail and I. Zoolander. The Big Lebowski. Any Given Sunday. Almost Famous. Requiem for a Dream. The Crow.Last one I saw: Miami Vice, pretty good.Last one to make me cry: Last Samurai. There, that's probably the most embarrassing thing I know about me. Apart from accidentally picking "not sure" in the sexual orientation section when I signed up for MySpace and then not noticing for three months. Yeeeah, that probably comes in first actually.

Television:

Right now, Prison Break series 2 (makes Mondays and the start of the week slightly less horrible), NCIS (whenever I'm in at 9pm on a Friday... so never... really, what's wrong with showing it on a THURSDAY?!), sport, the occasional documentary/news/music video perhaps. South Park too, which I flat out love (thank you, internet), Family Guy, American Dad. And looking forward to Heroes reaching the UK, meant to be good...

Books:

Finally finished Catch 22!! Really good. Now onto Closing Time, the sequel.

Heroes:

Emil Zatopek, Steve Prefontaine.

My Blog

Poke me

Yup, signed up to Facebook. People from years ago have reappeared ever since I was literally forced to sign up to that one too, and now it continues. Totally crazy to hear from people from 6 years ago...
