About meI am a compulsive collector.I never borrow any book, comic or DVD.If I need to read a book/comic or see a movie I buy it.A very costly pursuit.
I can boast of a rare collection of comics and books of over 1000 and films 400+
Love walking around our village with my better half. Prowling in 2nd hand shops, auctions, car boot sales and online - ebay,amazon,ioffer etc
Photography - I try for perfection.
I am fascinated by vintage cars - would love to have my own fleet.
The other extreme is also true. A Maclearn or an Aston Martin would find me a good owner.
Just love reading about the brain.esp Jackson's critiques on the functioning of the various parts of the brain.
In paradox - religion in the form of belief in Ganapathi holds true to me.
