Praise no day until evening, no wife until buried, no sword until tested, no maid until bedded, no ice until crossed, no ale until drunk.
Muisc, anything heavy and loud.
I read History - Roman, Greek, Viking, Norse, History of Britain and WWII, Ancient Austrian folk lore.
Witchfinding.
I write sometimes mainly poetry and lyrics.
Other intersts are nature, wildlife, walking, running, going places, seeing things, generally just larking about outside in castles, forests, ruins. Not that bothered by the weather, clouds are atmospheric! . Also play a bit of footy and cricket.
Oh Yeah I can juggle a bit to.
I'd like to meet:
"There's a thousand pretty women waiting out there
They're all waiting, they'll never make air
And I'm just the devil with a lung to spare, so....Viva las vegas"
"Where are you now my love?
My sweet one.
Where have you gone oh my love?
I'm so alone.I only think of you.
And it drives me down.
I only dream of you"
Those who feel the breath of sadness
Sit down next to me
Those who find they’re touched by madness
Sit down next to me
Those who find themselves ridiculous
Sit down next to me"
"Lo, there do I see my father.
Lo, there do I see my mother, my sisters and my brothers.
Lo, there do I see the line of my people back to the beginning.
Lo, they do call to me.
They bid me take my place on Asgard in the halls of Valhalla,
Where the brave may live forever."
WITCHES!
