odds
& sods . . . .
defying simple categorisation
My
life is enhanced by...
- meat-free eating
- running by myself (with the aid of the BoM
rain radar to plan
the timing and RunningAhead
to make a route map, work out length of run, log times, etc!)
- reading blogs
by
interesting
people
- coffee -
currently I use Ethiopian
Sidamo from The Coffee Roaster when
I make
it
myself. The best
is Ethiopia Sidamo from Five Senses,
but I can't afford to drink it. Also OK is
Mecca.
On th eweekend I sometimes
go to Dose Espresso. Vella
Nero is probably my favourite city coffee
venue....but I can't afford to go there regularly.
- Sourdough bread from Bourke
Street
Bakery, finger
buns from High
Street
(Vina) Bakery
- the music of J.S.Bach
- a variety of authors: Gerbrand Bakker, Anne Tyler,
Elizabeth Hay, Gail
Godwin, Richard Ford, Jens Christian Grøndahl, Per Petterson (esp. my favourite book chapter
in Out Stealing Horses) Elizabeth
Strout, Sue Miller, Carol
Shields, Margaret Forster, Helen Dunmore, Anita Brookner, and lots of
others working in the domestic fiction genre . . .
Miscellaneous
connections I have include...
