INTERESTS

• Interests: Blogging ... and ... blogging ... and ... more bloody blogging! And things like that ...
• Favorite Music: Bloody everything! I'm very eclectic ... in fact ... I must look it up! (The word, that is). I suppose one might say that I have Catholic taste (though I have great faith in my atheism). I think The Beatles were wonderful (I saw them,live, in 1963). I like some Classical music ... and I've been a very big Folk Music fan since the 1960s. Martin Carthy was a huge influence. I love Kate Rusby.
• Favorite Movies: British movies. I remember enjoying Lawrence of Arabia (in the early sixties!). Can't think of anything else at the moment. There must be others ...
• Movies I Want to See: Can't think of any ... it interferes with my blogging.
• Favorite Books: Cider with Rosie (Laurie Lee); McCarthy's Bar (Pete McCarthy).
• Books I Want to Read: There's plenty.
• Favorite Quotes: Knowing that you know little, is knowing a great deal indeed. Drink a little wine, for thy stomach's sake, and thine oft infirmities
• Favorite Foods: I make a pretty good Cottage Pie. I like Chinese too. And Spaghetti. I'm hoping to learn how to boil eggs properly ... one of these days ...
• Favorite Places: Western Australia. It's a wonderful place! But we must stop committing ecocide in the Jarrah Forest. I also think it is time that shops were allowed to open seven days a week, as is the case in almost every other country in the world.
• Places I Want to Visit: The office of the Minister for Forestry, Terry Redman, to ask him if he honestly wants to go down in history as the man who failed to preserve the Jarrah Forest for future generations. Yes Minister, SHAME on you!
• Anything Else: Haven't I said enough? We don't have to WIN the human race ... just SAVE it ... Give Logging the Chop! Serenity ... NOT ... Obscenity! Save the Whale ... and Jarrahdale!
