Strange Interests

I just love mechanical music.

To stand three feet in front of a 19th century Limonaire steam-driven fairground organ which is belting out Strauss` Radetsky March at full volume is my idea of heaven.

I will stand there until my ears bleed. Anyone else got an irrational interest in anything? :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

Moneyā€¦considering how much I get paid, I think this is pretty irrational :laughing: :laughing:

but seriouslyā€¦too many to list although automotive/aeronautical design and development is probably top of the list - it even led me to university to get an engineering degree, fat lot of good that did :stuck_out_tongue: :unamused: :confused: :laughing:

ive got a VERY big thing about punk rock. not the sort that you may see on telly, but the really loud and fast ā€œproper punk rockā€ that not a lot of peiple have ever heard. ive been into it since i was 12 years old(1979) and still buy the records, sorry CD"s now. ive even got some of my favourite bands names tattoo"d about my person! i know cliff warby would relate to my musical preferences, but we are a dying breed. i dont care though, i love it. loud and fast :smiley: :smiley:

Goth music, and trucks (Considering the industry Iā€™m in, liking trucks HAS to be irrational :wink: )

I have a vast interest in ā– ā– ā– ā–  :slight_smile::):slight_smile: my mates call me the ā– ā– ā– ā–  king.

Might as well be honest but im in love with the female body :wink:.

I dont know if its classed as strange though or is it just normal?.

:unamused: :wink: :laughing: :laughing:

All sorts of fairground stuff for sale every month. There were dodgem cars, complete, for sale last month. I told my Emma that one would look good in our front garden as a feature. Strangely, she didn`t agree. :frowning: :frowning: :frowning:

I think most of my interests would likely be labelled irrational, if her indoorsā€™s opinion is classified as general.

Shame, because apart from your two postings, this had been the kind of thread which shows that not all lorry drivers are moronsā€¦
