I want everyone who reads this to ask me 3 questions: no more, no less. Ask me anything you want (though I reserve the right to not answer, or to answer evasively).

What is your favourite item of clothing?

What book that has not been written do you wish had been, or was written, but has been lost?

You can do anything you want, so this being the case you are a skilful sailor (and it would be a very nice day). I have canoed the coastal waters of the Baltic, but only a very small section.

Boring and conventional maybe, but entirely understandable... ;)

1. "Anglo-Catholic fellow traveller": could you expand slightly? (I might describe myself as something similar, but am wondering if we mean the same thing by it!)

2. How did you decide the subject of your D.Phil thesis?

3. Do you play any musical instruments? If not, which one would you most like to play?

I was brought up baptist and then evangelical anglican, but now feel at home with liberal High Anglicanism/Anglo-Catholicism, although I have some reservations about aspects of the theology. (I'm a theologian though, so it's natural for me to nit-pick!)

I play the flute also, and the piano. I would LOVE to play the organ, but agree that I lack co-ordination (and probably the ego - if the organists I know are anything to go by).

1. Who is currently your favourite saint?

3. Do you believe, to any extent, in ghosts? (sorry, completely random there...)
