YAYYYY A fellow gamer and a petrolhead! You rock! 'A worrying obsession for motorsports' indeed. Me too...if it has a wheel at each corner I'll watch it. I even went out with an American motorsports driver for a while, but that one petered out when 9-11 reared its head and he was unable to travel.
I am also a reluctant FBer and almost no one has the link to my page. Much prefer Twitter! Without the internet I would not have kept in touch with several dear friends, nor met my husband. That one usually shuts my mother up when she's moaning about the evils of online life.
As a (very) liberal-minded, currently non-church-going Christian who has worked with scientists, I found your paragraphs on that area very interesting. Always open for discussion if you fancy, although I am not a professional debater by any means. I'm also a very direct type with rather a short fuse. I don't suffer fools, poor customer service or lack of awareness of those around, so most of the time I'm in a right tiff about something, as it seems there are altogether too many instances of the aforementioned occurring these days.
Have to laugh at your mention of 'British Parliamentary Debating', mind, as most of the time our politicians don't debate, they mud-sling and jeer mercilessly!
As far as herpetology goes, I'm no fan of snakes but I'll read about them. Just leave other exotic pets out of things, as I am decidedly not a fan of anything which scuttles, neither of anything which has more than 4 legs.
Welcome to Wizzley! Hope you enjoy it here.
Described by one of my clients as 'a literary grammarian', writing, researching and reading are requirements for sanity, at least this side of the keyboard.
