BOOKS
Bill Bryson has to be the tops...
He said that Australia has more creatures that can kill you in more exotic ways than any other.
He also said that any country that has a couple of politicians called Abbott and Costello has to have something going for it.
Perhaps we can introduce the creatures to the politicians.... maybe .... ???
MY FAVORITE COLOR
It has to be GREY, because I dye my hair that colour to make me look more distinguished.
Please believe me...
Honest, its really brown...
MY FAVORITE FOOD
Such a difficult question.
Almost everything.
However why is it so that everything we really like is either expensive, illegal, or fattening?
It's not fair !!!!!
I almost forgot !!! .... with food comes wine!
As I live an hour from the Barossa Valley, and 45 minutes from the Southern Vales, Australia's best wine districts, I am quite partial to a glass or two of the fruits of the vine.... what type you say? well, it depends a little on the situation, is it Monday, or Tuesday etc etc.
After a long career with an international I/T company as both a hardware and software specialist, I now enjoy my retirement. I live by a lake with an ocean beach about 5 minutes walk away.
I am very happily married, with two children who have their own homes not too far away
WHAT I LIKE
Friends and Family, Honesty, Compassionate behaviour, Music, Research, Technology,and providing a helping hand to others
