CURRENT MISSION

staying alive and content seems to be the mission of the day

PHILOSOPHY

I think basically my philosohpy is treat others as well as you can.
Never intentionally hurt anyone, it's just cruel.
It'll also come back and give you a serious bite in the ass at some point in the future when you least expect it.

Interests

interested in nature-ish things, but not in a "oh my god, i just have to hug that tree" kind of way.
I like books.
I love cooking - especially for others; it seems i'm rather good at it!

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: novels are good, classics are good. Ghost-written biographies of idiots are not.
Films: Having just seen "The Science of Sleep" i'll put that one down. It was great, i loved it!
Music: i'll listen to anything really. Although rap tends to annoy me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen Nelson Mandela give a lecture, from about 5 feet away. I was in awe...
I've also seen Hillary Clinton lecture. Lovely teeth!!

I've hand-raised wild birds and rabbits.
I've dug up worms for a badger called Maggie.

Teach, Learn, Share

Hmm, everyone has something to learn from everyone. I like to learn a new word or two in different languages: and i DO mean perhaps only one word!
I love listening to new accents - apart from a few that make my teeth tingle.
I teach as part of my profession, so i suppose i can always throw some information people's way. I happen to know a lot about animals.
