I've decided to have a wee chat with myself, since I didn't get to join in before, about Pruni's original question.

I am interested in:

  • books. Have always been, but have had qualitatively different resurgence of enthusiasm since Someone On Here told me last February to read Trollope while I was doing jury service. As party talk, though: only if very convinced other person equally interested
  • children whose development doesn't fit the usual patterns. Deeply interested in this, but again talking about depends on the other person coming from same place
  • the business model (& the sort of moral-philanthopic model) of The Book People/Red House. Other business models generally, & what makes things make money. (This is quite a superficial interest though & unlike the two above I can't sustain it for lengthy heavy factual discussion & will want to move onto food)
  • food
  • I'm quite interested in people talking about what they're interested in, but have realised as I get older that this is sometimes a bit lazy & in fact one ought to have a few amusing starters-for-ten in hand so that other people can take the listening (& if all goes well, the being entertained) role ... so, er, that distills into an interest in Getting Older and what that entails, socially, morally, physically ...

Hi Bink!

Do you fancy lunch sometime? We could have a chat about Interesting Things. Or something.

(My ability to cyberchat about Interesting Things is currently suspended owing to monster week. I could probably remember my own name, but wouldn't swear to it).
