About Me

This profile was created using: ProfileTweaks Editor Ver.2
Hmmm... Where to start... Ok. Music I guess. I have been playing guitar since I was about 15 and singing since I was about 18-19. Pretty soon after starting to write little bits and pieces on the guitar I got very interested in recording and layering up different sounds and melodies that I could hear while I was playing guitar/singing. That has kind of evolved from playing around with dodgy tape 4-tracks to creating my own computer based (still dodgy enough) recording studio in a spare room at my home. It is a lot of fun (unless it isn't). Another major interest of mine is spirituality, Nyoshul Khenpo Rinpoche defines this best for me: "I would like to pass on this little bit of advise i give to everyone. Relax. Just relax. Be nice to each other. As you go through your life, simply be kind to people. Try to help them rather than hurt them, try to get along with them rather than fall out with them. With that i will leave you, and with all my very best wishes." I also enjoy photography, mountaineering, cycling and eating sweet things...lol Well, hopefully I can figure out this blogging thing and I can elaborate on my interests in good time...

Mother nature shows me some love...

I am being flooded in this weird, super-rainy phase of our 'summer'...This time my defences were in place, I had cleared all my drains thouroughly and sealed up my back door with plastic bags as best ...

invalid subject line

My heart is full of love, but my head is full of shit so I am limited in my ways to express this love..Not lacking in ideas but lacking in the art of relaxation, being peaceful. I have to ask myself w...

Being peaceful in an un-peaceful world...

Seems like it is getting harder for peaceful people to lead a normal, peaceful life. We appear to live in an increasingly aggressive society that at times demands that you interact with it against you...
