[ Me] [Music] [ Guitar Stuff] [My Tunes] [Backpacking] [ Running] [Nice Places] [Software] [Front]




Here's the bit about me.
I used to spend most of my spare time playing hockey Hockey Ball and walking, but then I bought a computer and became a bit of a slob...

A few years later I bought a guitar, and then I bought another one and an amp, a Tascam 4 track recording machine, another amp, a mic, a minidisc, a whole collection of Shubb capos and all sorts of other nice guitar related stuff :) Two years further down the line I started walking again, but that fizzled out for a while after Foot and Mouth struck. Around about that stage I took up running, and now I do quite a lot of running in the woods at home and in the hills. This summer I finally got out and walked the Pennine Way with a tent, though, so now I'm back into backpacking with a vengeance! Next year I hope to walk across Scotland.

For those who are curious, here's what I looked like in 1990 on a diving holiday in Cyprus, and this is what I looked like at a guitar concert in Dublin in 1998. This is one of me at work, taken in June 2001, and here's one taken on the Pennine Way earlier this summer. There are more piccies scattered around on various parts of the site.

Well, I can't think of anything else to say about me right now. If you wish to know more, just check out the other pages for a comprehensive guide to how I spend my time! Thanks for dropping in :)
