Favorite LEGO toys/themes: Mindstorms, Technic, Star Wars, Discovery, Classic Space, Space Police, Indiana Jones, Castle, Fabuland, classic

My fascination with LEGO began... 1972

I once built... An airport & railway that covered most of our family dining room at the time.

Someday I will build... a Mindstorms-controlled vehicle to deliver food for my wife's cat.

LEGO is great because... it taught me to think three-dimensionally, and spot individual items from large complex collections.

LEGO fans are great because... they know how to think in 3D


My favorite Non-LEGO Toys: RC cars / gliders / boats

My favorite Hobbies & Interests: Sailing, tapestry, computers, tinkering, stained glass

My favorite Foods: Chocolate, sushi

My favorite Movies & TV: Farscape, Star Wars, LotR, Star Trek, MacGyver

My favorite Artists: Shigeru Ban (architect), Marc Chargall, Michael Whelan

My favorite Music: Enya, Brian Eno, Vangelis, Cliff Richard

My favorite Pets & Animals: Cats (pets), Dolphins


Words which best describe me: architect


I love it when... things work.

I hate it when... spacecraft fail.

I can't seem to get enough... time to build Lego.

I always seem to have enough... tax debts.

I hope I always... take life as seriously as I do now - which is not much.

I wish I could... get paid decent money to build stuff out of Lego.

I could never... watch a reality TV show unless it was called "Real- world scientific applications for Lego"

I hope I never... become a serious person, who talks about house values, taxation loopholes and what private school to send kids to.

I wish I hadn't... beleived that to have a decent life you needed to have a degree.


In my craziest moments... get rather loud, and think I can fly.

Believe it or not... I am Percy Bysshe Shelley's great-great-great-great- great-great-great-grandson.

If I were super-human... I would find a nicer planet to live on.


More & Less:
  • more space exploration, less amoured personel carriers
  • more trees, less brick veneer
  • more bicycles, less cars

Rules I try to live by:
  1. Advertising is the cause of almost all unhappiness.
  2. Be excellent to each other.
  3. No matter where you go, there you are.
