anything by amy winehouse

gosh - i hate to think' - probably still full of male innocence ?

any shape or size or colour and with any interests - and not a chocolate box

anything and everything - not crazy about classical music, although I like some classical radio progs - havent ever really delved into classical music. sorry, not a concert/festival goer - all that fast food and mud, but not totally put off and have never lived with anyone who was an avid concert or festival fan.

saturday first thing is Radio 4 till about mid day, then it is all that mundane stuff - flat cleaning time and stock up with food etc. - sunday is read the sunday papers, then it was michael parkinson on radio 2 from 11.00 to 1.00 and haven't found a replacement for that yet. after that it is probably a walk down to Waterstones - the long way - keeps me young and beautiful - walking.

well - what do you want to know and how much time you got ? i am normal regular sort of male - can't do more than one thing at a time. still trying to figure out what empathy is and where women fit into this world and that romantic bit - that is a real puzzle but working on it and coping meanwhile. i think as long as petrol stations always sell flowers, we men will be ok. i suppose my one endearing characteristic and saving grace is - i can laugh at myself - but not too early in the morning - please. usually fairly quiet and watch the world go by but can be the life an soul of the party if the mood takes and in the right company but probably slightly more introvert than extrovert. known to sometimes be fairly sensible. senstive and to have some emotional intelligence and be a good communicator. a passionate hate is - people with 2 faces and with double standards - so not one of those. honest and straight forward and call a spade a spade - it has probably taken me 40 years to grow into this saintly state, but that is one of the benefits of getting older - i think ? anyhow, that is my take so far - although like everybody have my good points and bad points, although the latter fail me here and now. suppose i can be a bit of grumpy old man sometimes, and ocassionally have a rant - but it is all good fun and one of the priveleges of being 60. have been know to have the odd john cleese fit on a bad day - well, why not, livens the place up. not always fatous and flippant.
