Records, guitars, golf, travel, gardening, photography,good films, eating out with someone special.

I'd like to meet:

I'de like to meet Joe Cocker and sing with him on stage. Would like to meet a millionaire female, who would give me enough money to buy the things I need. meet a person who could end poverty in the world, and get the world to live in peace and after he has done all that,I would like to see all my friends at once so I'de know they were alright. The swine who stole my car some years back and run the bastered overb slowly, and then reverse over him.

Music:

There is never enough time to hear all the music that I like, Joe Cocker I can listen to anytime he has one of those voices that just make me want to listen forever. The bands I do listen to are Gun, Def Leppard, Lynyard Skynd, Beatles, Rolling Stones, Santana, Hendrix, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, Police, Dire Straits,Spin Doctors (A pocket full of Cryptonite) is my all time favourite album. A local Duo called CRASH singer has a great voice.

Movies:

Die Hard is my favourite film of all time, Leathal Weapon, Gladiators, As long as someone dies in the first 3 minutes I like the film.
