Music naturally, nature and the world around me, travel but haven't done much holiday lately, motorbikes, learned to ride when I was 15 on my brother in laws KZ400, and always had a bike until my return to U.K. a few years ago.Had a few Kawasaki and Honda's but I'd really like to get a Harley Davidson now. The engineering and beauty of the machines is incredible, besides which that twin rocks me!Enjoy watching nature and history programmes as well as comedies and various types of programming that allows me to vegetate and not think.My other site www.neildiamondtribute.co.uk has audio samples on from the Tribute, but I hope to be adding some covers and original tracks soon.
Motor Racing, Bikes and Cars ( Lewis Hamilton is the most incredible talent I've ever seen in GP), Rugby, all aspects of nature (we have a beautiful and incredible planet and need to stop and take a look around us to apreciate what we have)
I'd like to meet:
Anyone who is positive, honest and has something constructive to say with a good sense of humour

Music:
All music. My site is www.neildiamondtribute.co.uk Grew up on ROCK, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath and the like, then broadened my horizons and can say I pretty much like most music and in more recent years I have grown to appreciate and love COUNTRY MUSIC and Folk.MUSIC IS THE SOUL OF LIFE.Can anyone even imagine a life without it? Music is there to be enjoyed and fortunately I enjoy most everything and appreciate the hard work put into all genres. It's what keeps the world going 'round.

Heroes:
My Dad, a fantastic man who is unfortunately fighting cancer day by day, though his condition is terminal. He's been there all my life, the quiet, supportive kind of person, non judgemental who never has a bad word to say about anyone and has always had a smile when it's needed. I have been very fortunate to have had a wonderful Father- Thanx Dad XXX22/05/2007 At 3.20am this morning, my Dad lost his brave fight.A great thank you to the Nurses and Doctors at the Nightingale MacMillan Unit in Derby who have cared for and helped him and our family during this time.As a footnote, when we got into the car to leave the unit after my Dad's passing, I switched on the radio and the first words we heard were, "My life is Brilliant", the James Blunt song. Of course, that was an incredible moment that will never be forgotten.Even though I know the background to the song, the first couple of lines of the songs will remain with me reflecting that particular moment in time.
