Movies	Used to go a lot but haven't been recently. Don't enjoy blockbusters.

My hopes and dreams

In ten years I see myself	Alive and kickin' and playing my guitar.
Who would I invite to a dinner party?	S. T. Coleridge, John Keats (hope they get on) and you.
My ideal date	Walk in Derbyshire, coupla pints and a good chat.
What would I never, ever give up?	Walking (just mooching, if you like) - it's in my soul.
If I had to give a speech on a subject I was passionate about ...	It would be about disadvantaged children.
If I could visit anywhere in the world at any time in history	I want to be here, now, and to make it work.
If I had a million pounds to give to charity	It would be a charity aimed at looking after people (all people, wherever they are) who'd had a bad start in life.
My "and finally" section ...	I like to think I'm fairly tolerant and easy-going. Not always as patient as I'd like to be.
