Introduction...About meeee

1. What is the title of the book (fiction) you are currently reading (or the last fiction book you read)?
 Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The final part to the seemingly never ending barrage of side plots and stories where a young wizard is constantly plagued with peril and danger. Overall I found the book interesting as it kept me wanting to read more but it still felt like a let down towards the end because it seemed to stop so suddenly with a rather anti climax of a ending.


2. What is the title/topic of the book (non-fiction) you are currently reading (or the last non-fiction book you read)?
Ah, Well the last fiction based book that I read was the True Stories of Piracy. The book was both factual and entertaining and even documented a story about a ship of peaceful Quakers who managed to stop pirates from attacking their ship by subduing them into a false sense of peace.


3. What is the last live performance (Music, Drama or Dance) you attended?
Battle of the Bands. It was at a local metal pub where I used to live and they were all local boys. The music was all their own stuff as well and the entire gig was a sight to behold.


4. What is the title of the last film you saw at the cinema/online or watched on dvd?
This is a easy one. My favourite film of all time, The Big Lebowski. A film about a simple man known as the dude who gets dragged into a conflict of none of his business.


5. How often do you read a newspaper? (Which one?)
I rarely read newspapers. About once a fortnight if i'm lucky and even then its usually the sun.


6. Which art gallery/museum/exhibition did you last visit?
Arts based, It would be the Tate in London. A general exhibition though, Would be Runefest. I enjoyed both thoroughly as they showed sides of artists and games developers that were previously unseen.


7. how many hours a week do you spend playing video games?
About 4 hours a day so around 30/32 a week including weekends. I often kill time by playing games in an act of stress relief.


8. How many hours a week do you spend playing games other than video games?
Usually under ten. Its rare that I will play games like this though I do role play from time to time thanks to the invention of the internet.


Thanks for reading.
