Did you know I also...

Outside of all the corporate, professional comissions and project work, people always ask Tony how he finds the time. Having the mantra of if you undertake tasks you enjoy and are passionate about you never actually work, the difference between 'work' and 'fun' an odd concept. So rather than other interests or hobbies, here what else he does:

Sailing
In 1948 one of the best designs for a small sailing yacht was designed by marine designer, Tord Suden, the Folkboat. My yacht, Shoestring, was built in wood to Tord's design in 1969 in East Germany. Over the years she's made her way around europe and even as far as the carabean. Today she sails on the Milford Haven in Pembrokeshire with many of the people from various projects mentioned on this website as crew members.

Cycling
Audax rides and long-distance endurance events. I also participate and sometimes organise rides in his local area of London or day-trips with customers and colleagues at Witcomb Cycles.

Greyhounds
One of the best things my partner and I did when looking at adopting a new dog was to look at Greyhounds. They offer a great companionship and also a lot of friendly fun.

Cooking
I wouldn't say I was a great cook, experimental is probably more accurate. Anyone who as been to my home is usually spoiled with home cooking. One of my personal projects is developing a 'kinky cookbook' which is intendting to explore how food and human form interelate with wit.

Ammateur astronomy
Understanding our place in the universe give immense pleasure and understanding, as already mentioned in the 'Projects' section, introducing other people into simply looking through a telescope is a very rewarding experience.

Synchronicity
Seemingly random events or encounters which reveal an underlying pattern, a conceptual framework which encompasses, but is larger than, any of the systems which display the synchronicity. The suggestion of a larger framework is essential in order to satisfy the definition of synchronicity as originally developed by Swiss psychologist Carl Jung.
