    I love nature. For me an ancient forest beats any cathedral for spiritual uplift. I enjoy pop music if it's as good as Queen or CCR, but nothing less than that. I play keyboard and love classical music best; full orchestral and as loud as you like.

About



Faced with a challenge I never ever run away. Where values and principles are at issue I would rather die in a ditch than compromise.

My abiding love of the natural world makes me something of a pagan. I'm an unashamed tree-hugger! Now somewhat restricted to a wee flat, I miss the gardens and animals I once loved and cared for - the rambling walks of other times - but I accept that all things must pass and look for joy wherever.

    Now you're just making me feel guilty! hehehe. But you're right. Real names break the fantasy. Tolkien is a God of fantasy, and that's partly because of his names and languages, if not mostly. Soooo... my own names... I can probably try again. Trial and error... trial and error.
