favourite animals: monkeys, donkeys, lions, tigers...
favourite films: shawshank redemption, clerks, dogma, watership down, the lion king, midnight run
favourite books: the vagina monologues (ok, it's a play...), the famous five book where dick gets told off for using bad language
after saying "oh bother. oh both, blast and blow!", bonfire of the vanities (tom wolfe), harry potter and the goblet of fire,
surfacing (margaret atwood... in fact, most of her books...), les miserables, round ireland with a fridge (tony hawks.. just read playing
the moldovans at tennies, too, and that was ace!) and loads more, really...
person i'd most like to meet: if i could meet someone dead, probably hendrix, if it has to be someone who's alive, i reckon
that nelson mandela seems like quite a nice guy... or possible claire richards (formerly of steps) because I had a huge crush on her
for years at university...
things i like: sitting around doing nothing except reading and listening to music. playing acoustic/clean guitar for hours on
end. my baby (also known as a fender usa telecaster in natural ash). alcohol in nearly all forms. curry, chilli - in fact nearly all
types of spicy food. flaming hot monster munch. girly girls. leeds. liverpool. being able to wear jeans, a t-shirt and trainers to
go anywhere, no matter what the club/pub has on, or whatever the weather is.
things i don't like: smoking (it just stinks...), people who decide at an early age that they want to be a politician (surely that
is grounds for never allowing them to be a politician - see william hague as an example), big tomatoes, celery, positive
discrimination (on the grounds that it is thoroughly demeaning for all involved), anyone telling me I'm wrong about anything (I'm not
very good at hearing that, and will often argue a point even though I know I'm wrong, but am not willing to lose an argument!), whisky,
middle of the road r+b bullshit (put some life, energy and passion into it, or just fuck off and write nursery rhymes), sand.
general beliefs: just get on with doing whatever it is you've chosen to do - and do it properly. and if you believe in something,
don't wuss out of it just because someone else tells you to. Your opinion is yours, no matter what other people say. They may be able
to change your opinion, but they can't disregard it
