I'm secretly a qualified steam train driver, and like railways :oops: , as well as being vaguely geeky.

Erm, added to playing silly amount of jazz sax and clarinet, and kiting, kitesurfing and wakeboarding, which I'm hoping are anti geeky, makes me a well balance person... honest :oops:

If the iPod is the window to a person's psyche I am a cross between a miserable old man who constantly bemoans the youth of today, a mid to late 30's waynes world/Bill and Ted throwback, an early thirties gay man and a 13 year old girl!

For example (a very small cross-section)

Old Man Dave

Miles Davis,
Muddy Waters,
Sammy Kaye,
Ray Charles.

Dave S Preston (Esq)

Alice Cooper,
Anthrax,
Iron Maiden,
Megadeth,
WASP.

Gay Dave

Abba,
Carpenters,
Elton John,
Take That!
Wham!
Whitney.

Davina

Blue,
Kylie,
Spice Girls,
Sugarbabes.

mountain biking is not really a dark secret. I do it all the time. Usually in Germany and Holland, but once a year in Belgium
Leather, leccy windows and mirrors, snowcap, foglights, open air filter, black roof upholstery. What more do you want? >a 2.3 turbo!
