Work and erm... Work for me atm. We're going through a big restructure right now, so it's all about keeping the boss happy

For my sins I'm a Middlesbrough supporter but haven't been to a match in an age, luckily you might say I used to play WoW but gave up when the pandas arrived. The dogs Max & Paddy keep me fairly busy and I generally have a fantasy fiction book in my hand...re-reading Erikson's MBOTF at the moment.

I'd love to have a look at your novel dragon

As I already pm'ed to womble It isn't ready for readers yet. I have had enough feed back from the first draft to know what needs to change (hopefully) This draft should be ready for readers in a couple of months, and fresh eyes (i.e. people who don't already know the plot, because they have read various drafts already) would be much appreciated. Anyone who is interested in reading it in a couple of months when it (hopefully) is much more readable, send me a pm so I can find you easily later

 and thanks for the interest all, I appreciate it

Used to be knitting, but it's a hobby that's fallen by the wayside . . . I stopped making jumpers etc a long time ago but loved making toys.

Must get back into it at some stage as I've a wardrobe full of yarn.

Thanks Dragon . . . it was a freebie pattern off the internet, so it's out there somewhere.

You can adjust the colours depending upon what class of Dalek it is of course.

Bit of a PITA to make as it's all done on circular needles so the decreasing gets a bit testing, but it was great fun to do.

Loving that bunny, Perpetua, you clever devil!

Can't knit a stitch or do much, I love sport, but now it's watching not taking part. Motorsport, RU, cricket, golf........Solheim Cup was a corker.

I'm loving the snails Perpetua

I used to do a lot of carp fishing but had to give that up so I built a proper koi pond and keep carp instead now, I decided to get fit a couple of years ago which started us both hill walking which led to peak bagging and I do a bit of scrambling as well now when I can work it with my climbing buddy.
I'm into photography in a way that doesn't actually justify all the bloody kit I own, and since the kids are at an age now where they don't want to come on holiday with us so often, started to enjoy planning and visiting places a bit off the normal tourist routes, which has been great fun and a proper eye opener so far

I don't know if you can call it a hobby, but I do charity events to raise money for national charities.
Got one on the go in November for Great Ormond Street and Arthritis Research UK. So I spend a lot of time sending emails to companies to beg for donations. Not doing too badly on this one, got a Liverpool shirt signed by Jamie carragher and a pennant from middlesboro fc signed by the whole team and numerous other bits and pieces.

Also I read a lot! Have to do something when we spend numerous hours in hospital with my daughter x

Entertaining :


AV (Audio Visual) Don't have pics of this, but I have a small speaker addiction to go with my Cinema room and lounge. Albeit nothing too overly expensive, but a couple of surround sound set-ups running B&W speakers and stuff...
