[Flinty]

Name - Jules
Age - Err...a venerable 44
Occupation - Environmental Engineer

Favourite:
Place - London (just as well as I live there) for its multiculural and wierd hidden bits, Berlin for lazy holidays, anywhere cold (hate, oh, thats later).
Food - Curry, not horrendously hot vinderloo or phal, but anything spicey; and preferably home made or from the Holy Cow (a real quality takeaway chain in London). Also fond of anything Mexican, and hearty German food; sauerkraut, dumplings and pigs knuckle tops my list over there.
Drink - Coffee, it's pretty much the only thing I drink. Alcohol at weekends only (binge drinker possibly) and usually a nice Syrah/Merlot/Rioja or Gin, or proper Bitter if I'm out on the town.
Movie Favourite is usually something I can just about remember (see: Age) Waltz With Bashir and True Grit were recent favourites, early Marx Brothers and Kurisowa are perennial goodies.
GW Game - Inquisitor (still only played once) - the rest of them leave me cold. Previous history of serious role-play (Call of Cuthulu, GURPS western, psyberpunk etc).
PC Game - Proper gaming, note, not button mashing on a console! Total War series and numerous Mods are excellent and always loaded, Far Cry for a FPS - currently playingMetro 2033 -not bad either and Mount & Blade. Used to have a heavy Eve habit, but thankfully went cold turkey on that.
Music - Psychobilly (Cramps,Trashmen, Hasil Adkins) Metal-bashing  (Liabach, SPK) Dance (Dangermaus, Unkle, Fergie) Jimi of course; anything 'odd' and even a bit of Kylie on occasion.
Author - Difficult to list a favourite, but Chandler, Pratchett, James Elroy, O'Brien: I tend to read more non-fiction.


Love - wee Frieda (daughter), endlessly amusing, books, not being at work. Oh, and the missus of course.
Hate - Being patronised, holidays on the beach/in the sun and people who wear brown shoes with a suit - very, very wrong...
