I find my friends interest me the most...
Old people with cool stories
Learning stuff from interesting people
Iggy Pod & all the musical magic inside him
How the bloody ruddy 'ell the music industry works...
Edinburgh Fringe
Mysterious things
Glastonbury
Cakes...the usual...
I'd like to meet myself in the street or in a noisy pub one day...who IS that?
I'd also like to meet anyone whose parents were cruel enough to name them so their christian and surnames rhyme...eg. Dave Cave/Mike Pike/Andy Gandy...(relative, perhaps..?) Things that rhyme are clearly superior to all those things that do not rhyme...View All Friends | View Blog | View Pics | Add Comment

To me, there's only one...my grandmother, Mona - she passed away in my arms, with every ounce of dignity, decorum and beauty she lived with right throughout her life. She brought me up right - tought me the most about generocity & respect. I love her so dearly, and I've never been so proud of anyone else in my life. My Nan was the definition of a hard fighter...I miss her more than I ever thought it was possible to miss anyone.
