"A hard man is good to find" - Mae West (probably)

Radio 4 regales me at 0700 to get me out of bed.

I can't drink milk.

I inadvertently proffer Haikus from time to time.

My hair smells of sunshine.

Her gun, uyanmam icin saat yedi'de Ingiliz Radio dort'e dinliyorum

Sut urune alerjiyim var

Bazen, haikuler kazara ikram ediyorum.

Saclarimin gunes kokusu var. :)

Making lists about things I hate, reflections of the sun from windows on another continent, good grammar, spying for dolphins, magicking, good house music

Things / People I Hate
******************

Religious fundamentalism, anti-intellectualism, bad grammar, D.I.Y. religion (i.e. cafeteria religion) hypocrites, "Pastors", people who are unwilling to accept anything to put them out of their comfort zone, people who think that being gay is an anti-social and pointless "choice", "Pastors", people who use God as an ethical backup for irrational things that they do, people who believe in a romanticised time before when everything was perfect when it really wasn't like that, mega-churches, immans that preach death and are in receipt of questionable claw-like prosthesis, health and safety legislation, compensation culture, pot-noodle chav Britain culture, the cult of little girls wanting to be Paris Hilton, hen-nights in gay clubs and last but not least, people who want to rain on my parade.

I work in Swansea, at the University. I hatch plans to move my car parking space e'er closer to my office.

I was going to save up all my money to go travelling, but I appear to have spent most of it on vocational qualifications and dress shirts, which is a shame. When I manage not to be so profligate I'll be able to afford a long-planned trip to Brazil.

My horse-like mane; similarity to Jesus.

working late,

singing my little heart out in choir practice,

attempting to come into Cardiff for a safari around the gay wildlife.

Once I threw a stone at a window in school and the window broke and I blamed another boy for it, and because I the teachers loved me, the teacher believed me and the other boy got in trouble. Oh the joys of being seven.

I haven't put you off.
