My loves are Lou, Mika, Bev, Carim, Mia, Poppy, JPS and the rest of my family, Puck & Nelson, my sounds, Earth Leakage Trip and the others, you know who you are... Personal interests are good music, despairing over bad music, DJ'ing, making beats, collecting vinyl, Plastic People, food eating, alcohol drinking, fish fishing, medieval jousting, robbing lobster pots, my Sinclair C5, squirrel farming, palomino pony hunting, hanging out with Swedes, arguing with my ex-neighbour (tosser), laughing at the BNP (scum), not laughing with George Bush (not worthy of comment), laughing at Tony Blair (knob), loving Mandela! Simon 'Drum and Bass' Davey's lawnmower, Nike sneakers, The Flying Scotsman, graffing with my nan, anything Apple, not feelin PC, giving love, insomnia, bad boogie tunes, The Sylvers Albums I/II/III, Nick NZA Hugget's my space!
