Interests palaeontology, art especially science and paleoart, science, medicine, history, sewing and beading. Most knowledgeable and least likely to engage in arguments about nutrition - what can I say, the pseudoscientific claptrap wears you down.

Looking at the 1930s bus at the motor museum and thinking it’s not that different from the older ones when I was a kid. And then also it’s basically a horse drawn tram with an engine at the front.
