My first passion was role-playing games. I met most of my friends from University through
role-playing. I dont do it as much as I used to, mainly because everyones lives are so
busy these days that its difficult to get enough people to stay in one place for long enough
to play a game. And my standards have risen - I no longer see the point of suffering the
company of fools just to get a half-decent roleplaying fix; so its a low volume, high
quality passion of mine at the moment.
Both Hilde and I love cooking. When we have the time, well cook ourselves yummy food after
work. In an attempt to remain healthy, its mostly vegetarian these days; although we both
love meat when its takeaway or restaurant food. We are fond of hosting dinner parties.
Mostly this is an excuse to expose our friends to each other / our experimental cooking, and
to get some use out of our sparkly new dining room furniture.
We go to the cinema once or twice a week. Our local Warner Bros. is within walking distance in Harrow
town centre, but we also go into central London most weeks and see something there as well.
I like to see a broad mixture of new and old stuff, of all styles. Probably my favourite
big-release movie of the last few years was
The Piano.
