Music, (loads of it)food, I love food, cooking it, smelling it, eating it, wierd food, sushi being one of my favourites, and baking calms me down, I love the beach near my house, it clears my head of all the crazy thoughts that happen and the wind blows any badness away, yoga all the time, swimming makes me tired enough to just fall asleep, arts and crafts for the insane, which is my "In Work Hobby" where I make special cards for people and things, also I am a closet book worm, love a good book! And CARS, old school hot rods are my favourite, would love a 1959 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz - 42" tail wings - oh yeah! Or a McClaren SLR if I was forced to choose a modern car, one of my all time dreams is to be a Ring Taxi Driver on the Nuremburg track in Germany, the best job ever!! I like the engines and that more than the actual cars, and my Dad - see below - has fueled my enthusiasm for all things mechanical since I was a teeny tot!

My maker haha!!
