| Re: All about us. Ok, then! Name: The people who know it, know it! Age: Old. No, really old, as in "How old??" Location: Southampton, via Taunton, Swansea, South Yorks, and originating in Cumbria . Website: Never felt the need. Likes: SF/F, especially Pratchett, RAH, Cherryh, Bujold, JRRT. Prawns. Merlot, proper beer. Most of the Chrons members I've talked to. Dislikes: Pseuds. Pyracantha. Gassy lager. Large dogs that the owners tell me "just want to play". Most TV. Most modern "music". Badly written cliché fantasy. People that consider that passing a test means that they can drive.

Cynic. |

However, I've enjoyed nature documentaries as long as I remember and it's only very recently that I've even heard of David Attenborough, as the ones I grew up with were in Danish (very handy, seeing how that used to be the only language I could speak ).It's not just the "music" in supermarkets that annoys me; it's how there seems to be speakers playing plastic pop everywhere. Speakers, speakers everywhere and not a place to think! | |

| resident pedantissimo | Re: All about us. Never filled in one of these; let's see how it comes out (loquatiously, no doubt) Name: that should be easy enough to guess Origins: born and raised (not particularly far) in Essex, sixties university dropout (probably not very bright, then) Specialist sciece education (and next best thing to illiterate, to boot) Worked theatre technician (downgrade iQ by five percentage points) and rock and roll roadie (at least another ten - why are we listening to this guy?)

Likes: getting things right, appreciation (especially for getting things right9 small children, carnivores. Dislikes: Politicians, those who do things "for my own good (esp. health and safety officials, Jehovah's witnesses and my doctor, who considers a redudtion in my mass essential for my future wellbeing) Age: yes, definitely Hobbies: apart from my work (sound engineer) and this place - designing universes, gardening and occasionally writitng. Reading, of course, but that's not a hobby, it's an essential of life. Marital status: not merely confirmed bachelor, but asocial to the point of celebacy. |
