A lover of books (everything, well mostly), film, music (early music, classical, jazz, world and folk, especially music off the beaten track), history (especially ancient and medieval), good food and wine, travel, walking, art (looking at), listening to the radio, and sitting somewhere warm with a cold beer and espresso watching the world go by.

Is there such a thing as a postal fairy?
Due to the vagaries of the weather and the Post Office I today received a cd I had ordered in early December. It's by Harry Christopher's and The Sixteen ('Christus natus est') and it is marvellous. A number of tracks stopped me in my tracks and this is clearly going to become a favourite cd of mine. Glorious music wonderfully sung. After a busy first day back at work after the Christmas break I was happily reminded of the importance of music in my life. Perhaps the postal fairy planned it this way, so that I could receive this life-affirming cd when I would most appreciate it. If there is such a thing as a postal fairy it might be the same sprite who out of malice - or spite - burns or buries other desirable letters and packages but always makes a point of delivering bills and junk mail by the kilo.
