Favourite Food




Beautiful Japanese food! I had already eaten the cod (in the yellow bowl) and was starting on the rest. Tofu came later on a brazier, but my favourite tofu skin - 'yuba' - can be seen here bottom right. Delicious!

Favourite Music





Thomas Tallis - Spem in Alium

This was one of wolfiewolf's earliest favourites, which he used to play with his brother Piers on an old gramophone. With thanks to a friend, Nigel of the Thomas Tallis Society and to Zenera for showing me where to find this amazing music site

The Snow Country


The first line of this marvellous book is perfect:

'The train came out of the long tunnel into the snow country'.
