I'd like to get down to it seriously and get something published though. I had a crack when I was on a train from Edinburgh to Glasgow recently, and concocted a short story based on my observations during the journey, which was an interesting exercise. I think I'll look for an opportunity to do it again.

I also like hill walking, which I have not had much opportunity to do living in Hertfordshire! Thankfully I am shortly off back to Scotland and all being well will have Ben Lomond in my back garden before the end of the year. Should help me get fit too.

Got any piccy's from the hill walking?

I have a fantastic one from the top of Goat Fell, Isle of Arran, two years ago, but it's pre-digital. We've packed a lot of stuff away with getting ready to move, but if I can find it, I'll scan and post it. I'm quite pleased with it as I had to line it up, guessing where I was going to be, and then balance it on the trig point. (I was on my own that day).

Look forward to seeing it.

I think that comes under the heading of activity not interest or hobby.

So got any interests or hobbies? Are you into DIY?Weaving?Photography?

Incog.

You should take one for yourself, so you can have a before and after.

I think it will be "interesting" once I get on the treadmill ie how long before I need mouth-to-mouth.

I would like to go to nightschool to learn another language but work till 8pm so I've no chance, perhaps a change in career is needed or marry a millionaire

MMMmmm Hobbies - I like modelling (specifically star trek space-ships)

And um - computer stuff of course.

Other than that I'm just a boring type of person.

Well poetry is a really personal issue so I would understand if you didn't want to share but I'd still like to read some of your work.
