I am also a big fan of tea and sugary treats. I used to be hooked on custard doughnuts but I'm free of them now.
WHO I WOULD LIKE TO MEET : Anyone to whom (musical) creativity is their entire world. By this I mean someone else as obsessive as me about creative endeavours - that's mine and anyone else's - and the constant consumption of new things, art, films, books, comics, great TV fiction but not TV itself as it's a load of utter shite mostly, all at the expense of financial security, a career or a dull, normal life that everyone seems happy to settle for...
Sounds Like:
DJ Shadow and Benny Hill falling down a flight of stairs, while fighting over who has the worst A.D.D.
