<p>Decent British guy, PhD chemist, professional scientist, hobby writer, with stories published (mostly erotica), keen photographer. Co-carer of a delightfully daft dog and two beautiful horses. Pro-humanity, pro-rationalism, happily agnostic.<br />Very broad-minded, supportive of other&#39;s life choices, tastes, hopes and dreams. We often learn by being open to try new things.<br />Unenthusiastic about all forms of political stupidity and extremism. <br />Despair of humanity growing up in time to save ourselves.</p>

    I rather enjoy trying out new and different things from time to time. I have a sort of bucket list... Earlier this month, I ticked one item off that list - a practical workshop knapping flints! I came home with a few functional arrow heads, too. The following week, I spent a day learning how to make linocut prints, which was great fun. But the best is yet to come. I&amp;#39;ve booked my birthday treat - a one-day hands-on workshop to make my own sword with Bronze Age forging techniques!
