I have a lot of other interests beside IT and web developing.
On top of it all stands music. I have a wide range of musical interests mostly between the years 1955 - 1975. But it goes from the real Mississippi blues and Jazz of the 30's, to the 50's Rock 'n' Roll and Rhythm 'n' Blues over the 60's British beat groups to the great rock and hard rock groups of the early 70's.
This is what takes most of my free time. I'm also "trying" to play some guitar.
Besides that, I have a lot of interests in history, mostly before the Middle Ages, mythologies (Greek, Egyptian, Norwegian,...) and legends (King Arthur,...).
And last, sometimes I'm creative with a pencil. I drew a lot in the past and from time to time I still take a pencil and a sheet of paper in the hand.
I'm also a regular sporter, mostly swimming, cycling, jogging, squash or tennis.
