Cycling, guitars, cellos & cello players (this week's fad), le Tour de France, Giro d'Italia, Vuelta a Espana, learning about pro-tools and the Avid...hmm perhaps I need to get out more...
I'd like to meet:
GWB - so I can say to him: "Iraq? Are you nuts?"
Eddy Merckx - So I can say I've met 3 famous Belgians
Al Gore - So I can say: "Love the flick. Now, can I vote for you?"
Music:
Just received FREE 'Live at the BBC'. Suddenly I'm 17 again and wearing those ridiculous loon-pants with my hair as long as I can get it. This was Kossoff alive and kicking and Paul Rodgers before he went show-biz. We shall never see their like again...
Movies:

Television:
I am addicted to Forensic Files - these people are insane don't they know they'll get caught?
Also Mythbusters. And cycling season is back! "He's digging deep into his suitcase full of courage!"
Books:
Inside the Peloton - Graeme Fife. Just read it. XLNT.
I'm also going through a WW2 kick so read 'Stalingrad' by Anthony Beevor for a thoroughly depressing look at how one man with a silly mustache can screw up the world.
Heroes:
HUGH ATTWOOLL- A sweet man, a wonderful drummer and, for the moment, the only Stiff All Star in heaven. Sadly I won't see you when it's my turn as they'll put me in the other place. God speed.
IAN WALLACE - Now appearing at the great gig in the sky. Thank-you Ian.
also this week...David Millar, Jens Voigt, Chris Horner, Robbie McEwen,Bradley Wiggins, Tommy Emmanuel, Joe Meek, Clive Gregson & Etta James.
