Being There !

About Me

Born 1964, part time human, talented progeny produced im 1987 and 1988, Jamie ( Mother Black Cap singer and student ) , Tim ( Engineer and am Golfer ). Married to Carol, Nurse Practitioner. All around me seem to have more interesting careers than mine but I try to make up with my hobbies what I miss at the corporate desk as a corporate whore !

My Interests

Sadly, or maybe not so ......... in no particular order .... Comedy, Music, Sci Fi TV, Film, Comics and Books, i like to think I can write a little and entertain a little bit from that. Though I enjoy a wide variety of people in these fields, I am mostly indulging in Ross Noble, Jam/Blur/Who/BSP/Kinks , Doctor Who , Usual Suspects/Peter Jackson , Alan Moore/Grant Morrison/Neil Gaiman , Stephen Donaldson/Neil Gaiman

I'd like to meet:

The Jam, all together, in a pub, why did you have to break up during my formative year at Polytechnic ! Bono, from a position of admiration and horror ! Ross Noble, a very funny man. The League of Gentlemen. Ray Davies.

Music:

I think I may have mentioned Jam/Blur/Who/BSP/Kinks but there are about 400 other CDs in the collection, it's a mood thing a lot of the time.Should mention son Jamie's band ( and a few friends ) ... www.myspace.com/themotherblackcapI am currently anamoured with Snow Patrols's track 'Chasing Cars' , recently saw Floating Greyhounds do a grunge style cover.

Movies:

Ususal Suspects LOTRings Shawshank Redemption Donnie Darko Clerks I & II

Television:

Who , Life on Mars , QI , Mock the Week , Room 101 , Battlestar Galactica , League of Gentlemen

Books:

Thomas Covenant Lord of the Rings The Hippotamus American Gods trashy but fun Doctor Who books Human Nature Jennifer Government old 2000ad annuals

Heroes:

My friends and anyone who can come out of politics with integrity even if I don't agree with everything they say and do ...... e.g. Tony Benn etc. MLK is a cliche but the rigt sort of cliche
