MUSIC! I really love music. I love playing it, I LOVE listening to it and I love talking about it. But not obsessive or anything :-D Also I enjoy reading, though not as prolifically as I used to. I no longer write, the words have left me, though I do like to try now and again. I enjoy history and the great past. I also take an interest in philosophy. I'm getting round to a couple of other things at the moment - sailing, more music, italian and Aikido. but these are currently more inclinations than actual interests at the moment.
People.
Most things really. Mainly rock - old school and modern, alternative, R&B, and folk. Currently destroying my ears with rediculous amounts of Imogen Heap and Chris Brown. Radiohead forever!
Empire Records, Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind, Highlander, Grosse Point Blank, Romeo & Juliet, Harvey, Finding Forrester, Piglet's Big Movie (Those who know, know!), 10 Things I hate about youThere are loads more that I am sure will occur to me later :-)
Due South is possibly the greatest TV show ever created. Farscape is almost as good. I love the O.C. and Sharpe is truely amazing. And House is pure brilliance. Jeeves and Wooster is just class. Recently I really enjoyed Hotel Babylon. I don't really watch much else these days.
Largely sci-fi and historical fiction. My favourite all time books have to be the "Dune" series by Frank Herbert. Altered Carbon by Richard Morgan blew me away (like his others too, less keen on market forces though) and Terry Pratchett is always welcome. Also loving the P G Woodhouse right now. Passing honours to Anne McCaffrey, Bernard Cornwall, Lindsey Davis and Asimov. Plus dozens of others, too many to mention.
