[England my lionheart]

About me,My name is Robert,screen name England my Lionheart which comes from the title of a Kate Bush song ,i am a Father of 2 Boys and 1 Girl and a proud Grandparent.
I am 53 i have no religion and feel no compulsion to follow one although i am very interested in religions and beliefs,probably my biggest gripe with religion is that people seem to care more about the hereafter than the here and now.
I love Music and have a varied taste and love to play my Guitar and Keyboard,i also love Art especially Titian and many of the classics and surrealism,cubism etc and i like to paint aswell.
I like outdoor Sport like Surfing,Sailing,i have just returned from the Swiss Alps this evening and did some climbing which was cool and my type of thing.
Any questions ask away

What sort of boats do you sail?

Do you prefer coke or pepsi?

Did you go skiing at all while you were in the Alps?

 

[England my lionheart]

What sort of boats do you sail?

I Sail in a 25 year old wooden 12 foot Sailboat but i have been on bigger

Do you prefer coke or pepsi?

Coke

Did you go skiing at all while you were in the Alps?

Unfortunately not,the Snow recedes right to the highest peaks so all the runs are just grass but it is handy using the chair lifts to get to the business end of the climb.

Cool, someone older than me.

Hi Lava,its great being a Grandparent although it is hard dealing with the word Grandparent because i always associate it with being old :cover: but i don't feel old

 

[England my lionheart]

I like Coolsie because he is more Masculine looking whereas Syd looks like a Handbag accessory,saying that Syd has his Gentlemans Jewels Coolsie does'nt.
I go to London as little as possible nowdays but i used to go a lot to Gigs and such but its only 40 miles away.
I was very into Politics when i was at School but i soon came to realise what barefaced liars Politicians are,i would much rather have the truth no matter how bad it is.

 

[England my lionheart]

What kind of painting do you do?

I like to do Big stuff like Titian,i like to paint without a set plan,most end in the bin but i enjoy it.
