    Image and video hosting by TinyPic

    My interests are very mixed and multidisciplinary, in addition to the ones previously mentioned mentioned I have a keen interest in Folk Music and dancing at Ceilidhs, playing music (mostly Early and Folk Music), walking in the countryside, travel (France, Germany, Belgium, Holland, Austria and Hungary), geology, reading, model soldier painting, photography, watching TV/films and talking!

  • Müzik

    My musical interests are very varied, depending on mood and spirit, and whatever else that might effect me at the time. My musical collection covers everything from Early Music to Pop Music, as long as its tuneful & melodic, and not boring!!! I particularly like Early and Folk Music, especially dance music, which I enjoy listening to and playing on my recorders, and singing & dancing to! I am lucky enough to know many of the musicians who ar my Myspace friends personally (mainly through their conection to Brancepeth Castle). Favourite bands of all time? Its got to be "The Oyster Band", "The Cock and Bull Band", and "Horseplay"!
  • Filmler

    I particularly like classic historical epics like "El Cid" and "The Vikings", & modern ones, like "Kingdoom of Heaven", even though my friends and I can annoy others with our "nit-picking" over historical details/faults. Not surprisingly I also like epic fanasy movies like "Lord of the Rings", etc., but also Space SiFi, like "Star Wars", "Star Trek" and I love the pure art and style of "The Fifth Element". I also enjoy a good detective thriller, especially those envolving ferensics (its just very fresh archaeology), except when they include bits of bad research or premote false history. And I like good bawdy comedies, like the "Cary-on" series, or the original version of "The Producers". And often I like watching really wierd stuff!
  • Televizyon

    Much the same as my movie interests, but particularly historical documentaries (I used to enjoy natural history programmes, but they have mostly become rather sammy). Although I am finding many of them really annoying, because they spend the whole programme just repeating the same five minutes of actual content. .. I definately hate soaps, cookery, gardening, vet, hospital and home improvement/movement programmes, and I only have a limited tolerance of 101 similarly themed antiques and car boot sale themed programmes.
  • Kitaplar

    My extensive non-fiction library reflects my many interests, and my fiction collection mainly consists of good acurate historical fiction by authors like Mary Renault and Alfred Duggan.
  • Kahramanlar

    The only heros I can think of straight off the top of my head all relate to my archaeological career, and I am happy to be aquainted with all of them. They are: - Rosemary Cramp (my old professor of archaeology at Durham Uni); Brian Roberts (who developed much of the landscape history theory that I used in my PhD); and Mick Aston (the leader of "Time Team", who was my external examiner for my PhD). I also greatly admire Margaret Dodson the very patient and understanding owner of the Castle I live in.

Ne Diyor

Hakkımda:

I am an archaeologist and potter with a long held deep interest in nature, history, landscape, folklore & music. I have been and am a gardener, a landscape designer, an archaeologist, a landscape historian and I am now the "Green Man", a potter and ceramic artist combining all my past experiences and interests in to an art form that I have found I have a natural flair for. My pottery work has a stong green man and historic theme and can be described as "Folk Art" of a traditional British "Arts & Crafts" style. I live and work in ancient Brancepeth Castle, near historic Durham City

Visit my website for further information about me & my work; - thegreenmanpottery.com.

Also take a look at; - green-man-potter.deviantart.com, where I have some more pictures of my work and home.

My archaeology work is mostly concerned with the study of the landscape (particularly hedges, woodland and field boundaries) and man's effects on it and its effects on man. I worked on a number of archaeological geophysical surveys in Scotland, Ireland (Tara) and England (Whitby), and spent the summer of 1999 analysing Hungarian prehistoric stone tools in Budapest. A lovely city that I enjoyed living in for those few week. However, "paid" archaeological work was always very sparse for me, hence the change to becoming a potter.

The Green Man has opened up a new & exciting world to me of arts & crafts & craft fairs & artists & artisans & admiring customers. He has led to many new friends, and the enrichment of many existing friendships, and a change in the status of many exisiting contacts. As a consequence my life has become much richer, if not financially (that's not really what I am about), very much so socially!

Kimle tanışmak isterim:

Interesting people, new friends and potential customers. And bands, if you are going to request my friendship, please send a message to increase your chances of acceptance. Chances are that if you don't send a note, and have over a 1,000 friends, I wont accept you.

    Yeah, LOL I'm seeing that pretty much everywhere. It forced me to open yet another FREE Acct. But that still leaves dozens of pages stuck with the Bandwidth comment. Here's a kitty cat in a Christmas tree ....His bandwidth is fine, although he may get scared and pee on your gifts up there.

    I was inspired to write a poem about sitting MOB
    Hope you enjoy it.

    Autonomy Catastrophe for sitting MOB
    His days of lurid leering are never more to be
    Some passersby may pass the time however it may pass
    As for sitting MOB I know he passed some gas
    In a shallow grave not far from here the worms crawl in and out
    He drank his fill He pissed and moaned and then he got the gout
    We all had bet that he’d be shot or strung up from a tree
    But he never saw it coming …from standing MOB

    Glorious day for a Funeral! I think it all went pretty well, I want to thank you all for attending. Sadly, we couldn’t afford a lid for the coffin …but some funds had to be diverted for Libations ….After all : Life is for the Living. I opened an account at Auntie Pam’s Candy store for the children in attendance, One lovely young child flicked something briny tasting at my face and yelled “ Seagulling!” wonder what it all meant. Anyway, Now we can all cram into the Queen’s Backside …Pub & Restaurant where there’s an open account all night for Marmite crisps and an endless supply of Old Speckled Hen.
