I love
London,
particularly
walks
and
cycling along
the
Thames (the
footpath, not the
river
itself..).
Live in
Richmond in a lovely flat
right next to the
park.. play lots of
tennis, love my work and my
friends in London and
Brighton.
Now in French
Mon Français n'est-pas trés formidable, donc pardon-moi si te
plaît; mais j'aime beaucoup la langue et aussi la campagne de
France. Je voudrais parler Français beaucoup plus, et aussi le
lire!
J'habite en Londres, je joue la musique (le contrabass et la
guitare), et je travail faire des films pour la television et
l'Internet.
J'aime jouer le tennis, passer du temps, marcher en nature, la
natation, l'architecture, la musique, les pique-niques. Écris moi
un message.. dis 'hi'!
I studied music, made a living playing
double bass, whilst making my
own music
running bands in Brighton.
Then I came back to London and develop new ideas for
TV programmes, and
help produce a lot of good music
documentaries.
I'm inspired by
architecture and
landscapes, so I like
walking in the
city or
countryside.
Probably that I
laugh and
smile a lot.
You'll have to tell me what you
notice if we meet up!

Food:
Yep.
A life without
chocolate would be possible but
difficult.
Likewise shoes.
I have to admit I am really enjoying the
iPhone at the moment. It's kind of
displaced the MacBook for the moment..
I don't know about people who say 'sex'.. it's not exactly a thing
in that sense is it? I think I'd have to say '
love', '
affection' or '
my friends'.
Pen and
Paper: I'd go mad without the ability to make stuff, record
ideas and develop them.
I'll think of another one..
First thought is that life without
vegetation (plants,
flowers, trees) would be pretty
bleak, but then I'd
love to go to the
North Pole one day, so I'm sure I
could manage..
How to make really good stuff, that really means something to
people. Bit vague sounding, but there you have it! I sometimes
think about the impacts of
new technology.
Wondering whether I'm too
silly; or too
serious.
Out with
friends,
possibly trying out a
local ale, unwinding after the week.
Having quite a lot of
fun.
I'm pretty competitive when it comes to sport. I have no beard this
week.
The two things are not particularly related :p
Oh, you know, if you'd like to message me.
Come and say hi!
