Well,I like reading books!
I like daytrips...much more than long holidays.
I like to go & watch local bands with my mate Mr.Pilch.
I would say film & photography are my main interests.
I like (almost) anything to do with movies & the film industry.
One day I will shoot the best movie ever to be made...perhaps...perhaps....perhaps!

& Sir Isambard Kingdom Brunel.
His ideas revolutionized the Industrial Revolution,& to this day his work still forms the backbone to this countries shitty transport infrastructure.As some of his hair-brained schemes caused the deaths of countless thousands of un-skilled workmen every year,you could say he single handedly wiped out unemployment...by creating an inexhaustable supply of job vacancies.If he were alive today,he'd no doubt piss himself @ all the traffic jams,whilst quipping...
"Job seekers allowance??...health & safety @ work??....MY ARSE!!"
