I'm a Catholic...

But... that's but with a capital B, it feels like I've kinda lost my way. Is it me of has the world moved on?

The hatred between religions, the sick things religious people do, the sick things people do in the name of religion, I've just about had enough!

The conservative religious are growing in number and the pious are now called fanatics.

JC taught us to love one another, yet we discriminate, against gays, we despise those who follow a different religion, we think of those who practice yoga as evil.

It seems more important to be seen as holy, followers want to be seen at mass, to be known as most generous with the offertory and all the while thinking, it's ok to evade tax and support policies refusing asylum seekers and refugees in.

Yup, that's Christianity with a capital C.

What I love...

I don't ask for much and I'm definitely not one for lengthy conversations. I recall being on a long distance flight with a lady colleague, was happy with the movie selection but she wanted to talk! I'm not shy to admit that I'm a bit of a loner. Prefer a good book (GoT) or a good movie (anything with Kate Beckinsale), to an evening at the pub.

I may previously have expressed a fondness for Shiraz, it's a lie. Give me a cold glass of Traminer Riesling. Wonder if my preference has changed due to the recent heatwave?

Some may deem me too old, but I do love a good computer game (Final Fantasy anyone?) and all types of gadgets... The latest and weirdest. I run Ubuntu on one of my laptops.

Chocolate.. did I mention chocolate, I love Toblerone! Cheese. I love cheese, the blue variety, Stilton or the Tassie Roaring Forties.

I'm off for a quiet spot of fishing... alone!

Please do not disturb!
