Simon Nott's Interests
General
Music,Horse Racing, I work with an on-course bookmaker travelling the turf. I write about both, on a freelance basis. Two very different lives pretty much in harmony.I also love to travel combining both interests. Recent trips included Memphis to visit the Sun Studio, Australia where I saw The Living End and Green Day a few times, also went to The Melbourne Cup while there. I have also been Horseracing in Thailand, India, Singapore and Canada.I also enjoy going to the gym to try and keep Mr Middle Aged, Old Father Time, not to mention The Grim Reaper at bay.
Music
Rockabilly, RocknRoll, Punk, Trash, Garage, Pop Punk, Hillbilly, Psychobilly etc,old favourites,Stray Cats, Meteors,Tooter Boatman, Sonny Burgess, Mac Curtis, Jack Earls .. , Billy Lee Riley, Elvis,Hank Williams, Hank 3 Gene Vincent, Lee Denson,Eddie Cochran, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, Charlie Feathers, The Sonics, untold 60s Trash, my fav bands at present The Living End, Social Distortion,Offspring, Alkaline Trio,The Cramps, Green Day, Frantic Flintstones and The Long Tall Texans...

I am 42, not sure how I got that old so fast so refuse to believe it. I love music and travel and work in the horse racing betting industry on-course. I am also a freelance writer and have been published regularly in music and horse racing publications, monthly in Racing Ahead and occasionally in The Racing Post Weekender as well weekly in the Mid-Devon Gazette series. My ambition is to write more and travel more. I love music festivals and gigs, it's like a double life that seems to go well together and mess each other up totally at the same time, but racing n rocknroll could have a future together.
I hate the town I live in mainly because of some the pond life who dwell in it but also have some great mates here too.I do love Devon and North Devon and Croyde Bay especially, it's very nice when the sun comes out but still groovy when It doesn't,but I'm also just as happy in a rockin' gig in the evil city but I love Devon with its rolling hills and wonderful beaches, as much as I love to travel it's nice to have such a fantasic county to come home to. That's me in a nutshell, if I think of any more I'll add it. Cheers for looking.
