ABOUT ME

Love travelling, meeting people with conversation, understanding why people fight wars, experiencing fine foods, street foods and anything different. History etc, not someone who lies on the beach all day.

Favourite quotes:

You're an absolute shower! - Terry-Thomas
To be born an Englishman is to win Gods great lottery of life
"C'est magnifique, mais ce n'est pas la guerre." ("It is magnificent, but it is not war.")
"La Garde meurt, elle ne se rend pas!" (The Guard dies it does not surrender!)
"Nas malo, no my v telnyashka" (We are few in number, but we wear Telnyashkas)
There are bitter weeds in England - Said to Boney when the Grand Army lay at Boulogne

PHILOSOPHY

The protestant work ethic is the only honest way forward.

音乐、电影和书籍

The Jam, Concrete Blonde, Blondie, Ska, The Lord of the Rings, all the original Bond books. At the Mountains of Madness and other HP Lovecraft books, in fact I would have loved to live in New York in the 20's and 30's.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.
