Interests

  • General

    Interests: Philosophy, literature, nursing, taijutsu, Dhamma, growing plants, drawing/painting (badly), chasing up every Werner Herzog film/documentary in existence, cooking, weights, walking/hiking, procrastinating, pissing around on the internet... I spend most of my time meaning to do things and not getting round to them. I'd like to get back into yoga and meditation, improve my non-existent French, read more, piss around on the internet less, take more exercise, et cetera, et cetera...

    Dear friends, I am playing a free gig at the beauteous Union Chapel, Islington this Saturday. The sunlight will be streaming through its vaulted windows as Blank Canvas and Arctic Circle present this gig during the blessed daylight hours of 12-2. And yea shall it's hallowed interior be filled with all manner of scraping, wailing and gnashing of teeth. Let us pray. And then let us go to the pub.
