Why get in touch with me? To bounce ideas off, think of ways to encourage free exchange of knowledge and information worldwide, swop silly stories, grumble about the blame''n''claim system ...
To make the most of our incredibly wonderful environment (a couple of years ago I tried hang-gliding, based on the idea that I''d be able to say sod the computer and take off over the cliff ... but during my training I crashed so often that my tutor got worried about me bending his glider. So I gave up and bought a Thruster TST (sister plane to Propellerhead) - but sold it again after an engine seizure shortly after takeoff made me re-evaluate my choice of aerial transport. If you''ve got something more reliable I''d be happy to copilot - I got a PPL with IMC and night rating, er, 20-odd (very odd!) years ago.
Or if you want a navigator (sailing or flying) you could try me (Solent Points, Cowes week, Kiel week, a tall ship in the Azores)
... or someone to scuba dive with (though in warmer waters than the Channel, thank you very much)
... or someone to walk the dog with (I live with a maladjusted Black Patterdale who likes four miles fast before breakfast).
And to look at the world with new eyes. My latest enterprise is converting an old Victorian stone coach house into a place for people to come and stay and at the same time learn about offgrid and permaculture living - have a look at <<website removed>>.uk!
