About Me

Na'then
I am John Hanslip. I was born in Bradford West Yorkshire in January 1975 and i've lived here ever since. It's good.
You can work out what sort of chap I am from my loves and hates.

and trains and railways and things that fly, especially military variety what are really loud and strapping myself to a plank at the top of a hill covered in snow and seeing how injured I can get before I hit the bottom, and erm... being Yorkshire and industrial things and FlightSim and fires and fireworks and old tunnels and caves and climbing hills and ridges and old mills n stuff like that and exploring and making and building things and drinking wine and jam and going fast on motorbikes and the lovely countryside and full english Breakfasts and metal fests called Wacken and travelling around and going camping in the Dales and being with my ace friends and my family and my Carrie.

and don't forget, if you like the Deth...

Nature. Beautiful and cruel.

At about 5pm this evening I saw Dave the caretaker walking into college with a lovely Black Carrion Crow that he’d found in the car park. It was quite calm. He told me this is how th...
