I'd love to travel the world teaching Tango, but I'm nowhere near good enough to teach it in my lounge let alone worldwide.

Plus, does teaching something you love take away a bit of that love........?

I would love to be a serious anthropologist or historian along the lines of Prof Alice Roberts. That womans intellect and breadth of knowledge is staggering (she also rocks a leather jacket). I don't have the intelligence to have achieved what she has but I try and learn what I can from reading etc.

I should and could have been an actor.

I love to entertain and enjoy acting almost like its a game. to learn the lines, look like you really are the character you are portraying and make it believable.

Unfortunately, Its not what you know but who you know in that industry and I hated all the arse lickers and back stabbers and could not be bothered with it all!

Now looking back, I sometimes regret not trying harder.

But I have done a fair bit of film extras work and love doing it when the chance arises!

I saw a job posting for someone who goes out to test hotels for comfort and ease of access for nefarious, illicit activities for the cheaters of the country. Or wait, they likely meant those that need to be discreet.

St Leonards

Seriously?

It's aiming very high.

Before I die, I'd like to be part of the redefining philosophy, ethics, science, culture, and politics that's starting to take hold across "holistic" channels of thought and being.

It would change the entire trajectory of the last 12,000 years.

Science is touching it with holographic theory, culture with neuroqueerness/diversity, and politico-economics with chaos theory and behavioural economics.

But none of it is "knit" together in usable ways yet.

So, a part of knitting it together, with others, and leaving something useful and future-needed behind.

Failing that, professional friend to panthers x.
