Music. I play lead guitar in a couple of bands, keyboards and enjoy writing songs. Also look afterThe Mutton Birds Myspace page.
Football. A Nottingham Forest fan for my sins (I must have sinned a lot).
Keeping fit (well trying) and getting about and trying my best to enjoy the bit between being born and the last breath.
Life’s too short right???

(superb) Skids. The Finn Brothers. Crowded House. Split Enz Anything Neil and Tim related. Don McGlashan. The (excellent) Mutton Birds. The Armoury Show. Black Box Recorder. The Front Lawn.
