I am here for Friends

About Me

I did invent the yelling party, and later the snuggling party.

'He's a revolutionary. He moves from strength to strength.' - Herald Sun

'What can we expect next? The snuggling party was a bigger success than the yelling party; most analysts never believed that could happen. I hear he can fit five people across and two longways on his bed.' - Steven Spielberg

'I hear he likes driving gloves... I might have caught a glimpse of one? Maybe he was just really tanned.' - Bystander

If you're among my closest friends you'll get invited to NJW and its spinoffs. And yes, they may be the best parties ever. And yes, there is helicopter access at the Baldwin Manor. I'm just waiting for a helicopter.

I do enjoy food and its peculiar incarnations around the globe. Hence, I enjoy the effects of globalisation. Eating durian with a blocked nose is a pleasant experience. Coconuts are good by themselves but in anything else, lamingtons included, they suck.

Contrary to popular belief I do eat fruit... but only a few, funny looking ones.

I like cooking. As it stands I have complete mastery of fish but just about anything else results in a visually spectacular failure. An edible one, but a failure nonetheless.

I like driving too. If you'd like to go for a drive just ask me.

The hills are brilliant.

If you see someone wearing a white hat it's most likely me. An orange shirt will confirm this.

I'm a little past yelling, however snuggling will be a life-long love affair from what I can tell.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Gandalf

Someone who might challenge my ownership of the title 'DK'.

Also, someone intelligent, attractive, funny and generally awesome.

In other words, I want to meet myself.

Looking at photos of the farm

Reminiscing about Attila the Hun

I was having a chat with Nick today, about getting my Mongol bow and all, and you know, it just threw me back to the first half of the fifth century. It's been a while since I've sat down and thought ...
