I started writing a reply to this and realised I'm not very interesting, so decided not to bother ;-)

Oh, ok :-)

Music - I love listening to music. Some of the artists in my iTunes library are currently:

Aerosmith, Blur, C64 Orchestra, The Chemical Brothers, Coldplay, Corinne Bailey Rae, Depeche Mode, Holy F**k, KT Tunstall, Kylie Minogue, Madonna, Nelly Furtado, Oskar, Porcupine Tree, The Prodigy, Radiohead, Skin, Skunk Anansie, Tan Hauser Gate, Thom Yorke, The Vines, Zero 7

(Current favourites in bold)

Radiohead are a permanent fixture as a favourite. Anyone who knows me at all knows I really admire them. Bloodline's band Tan Hauser Gate are also in there - check them out ;-)

I also (try to) write music, though this is less of a hobby at the moment and more of a self-created chore due to the fact that I have very high standards and probably think about it too much :roll:

Studying is taking most of my time at the moment. I'm training as a Speech and Language Therapist, which in many ways is an extension of my existing interests in language and anatomy/physiology. I'm particularly interested in etymology, and often find myself thinking about words and how they relate to each other and where they come from - see, I told you I'm dull :lol:

I like playing with and walking my dog Marvin. I run and work out in the gym - though this is another one which switches from a hobby to a chore :roll:

I'm a total geek and like retro games (hence the Amiga) as well as more modern compuers, namely my MacBook and my iPhone. I am also building a MAME cabinet. It's a looooooooong term project :-)
