Going to the pictures, wearing scarves, making Kerrr-Powww noises.
Tommy guns.
Going out with Ivy Samways from the sweetshop. And before you ask, I don't see Violet Gibbons from the chippy any more, 'cos Mum and Uncle Arthur kicked up a right stink about her, said she was common. Anyway, she smelt of fish and chips and people were always giving us funny looks in the pictures.
Also, when I'm not at the bank or else on patrol or with the platoon, I enjoy live music, you know, going to see bands play and all that malarkey. (No, I don't mean brass bands!) Sometimes I'll even have half a shandy (but don't tell Mum).
I also play guitar, a little bit of bass guitar, baritone ukulele and dabble with keyboards and electronic instruments. Interested in home recording - I'm still trying to get to grips with recording on Uncle Arthur's old wax cylinder.
I collect guitars and ocasionally will throw together an instrument from spare parts, broken guitars, etc. See my guitar weblog at: guitarz.blogspot.com
Also a keen reader of the Fortean Times and interested in all sorts of weird shit (not that I necessarily believe it all).

Blimey! Meeting people? I'm not sure about that. Mum'll kill me if she thinks I'm meeting weirdoes off the interwebnet.

Some of this lot pictured below (see below). I tend to shy away from churned-out Hollywood crap or anything that is over-reliant on CGI. Ray Harryhausen was always the master of special effects; no-one else can touch him. Foreign-language films are great too, especially French comedies. Also I tend to prefer TV shows to full length films as I often have a short attention span.
