Rhumour

Self confessed quirky guy, living in fairly quirky home (see photos) in rural Lincolnshire. I have diverse interests, an inquisitive mind and two kids still at school. Widowed a long while back.
I'm a strong believer in co-operation above competition, openness above smoke screens, laws above scammers.
Career paths have veered quite widely from being a professional aquarist to many years in industrial measurement and control systems and more recently into selling all kinds of made to measure blinds.
I have an interest in science and technology, wildlife, sports, classic cars, restoration of old buildings.
As time and mood permits I play some guitar, write a little, use the computers to more purposeful effect. I may post a blog or bulletin here from time to time when feeling suitably inspired - comments are welcomed (but without the expletives please, lol).
I enjoy many kinds of music, will listen to anything good that suits my mood. Like to see live acts as and when, from pub acts or folk clubs to stadium shows. Will usually change the music playing on this page a few times every week.
And who knows, maybe I will eventually get around to recording some of my own songs as has been suggested by a few folk - due warnings will be given in that event! lol.Meanwhile I do post some of my scribbles here in my blog, as well as on other sites - see links below. Other items are being published there quite frequently and range from politically edged to lighthearted items.
A wide selection of my poems can now be found on along with thousands of other modern and classic poets at http://www.poemhunter.com/dave-dunn-aka-rhumour/
For an example of my more campaigning poetry and articles which can be found on my 'Bard to Believe' blog - see link below labelled 'Read More Here' which will take you to view:
'Exposure'
My views on the growing ways in which even democracies can manipulate justice and juggle power as they wish to subjugate the inconvenience of opposing views.........

Whatever else do these control freaks want.(politicians)
They may shackle our rights and take away our free speech but never, never will they never take away our freedom, our minds! Bring on the new revolution, the one thats befits nature and not controlled civilization by stupid conforming patterns layed down by governments. BRing back family life as priority and not work us like dogs where pleasure with famiy had become scarce! All for the sakes of MONEY< money money!  WE should not pay for living!! (water, food) blah blah....... Oooh you provoke the celtic mother earth in me don't you Rhumour!
