VAN DAVY


Living at Pearl Beach, NSW with wife Yue. Step daughter Sheng now off at Sydney Uni so we are freer to do as we wish. Latest adventures have included two 3 week bicycle tours [through Vietnam and Taiwan], a 4 week motorcycle rip through NZ, with an [in planning now] 2015 hybrid [bicycle + motorcycle] 6 month trip through Turkey, Greece, Adriatic coast, Italy, France, UK, Norway. Any ideas from more experienced travellers are welcomed.
 
Very engaged with matters political, especially since the Abbott-led and Murdoch-managed neo-cons have taken the Treasury benches and shame us internationally with their denial of Climate Change and brutal treatment of refugees [amongst other matters]. 
 
My wife is a Japanese-Chinese cuisine chef, an elite musician [traditional Chinese instruments], and a truly great travelling companion, amongst many other attributes. She really enjoyed her recent weekend engagement with the WWTC crew at Marion's, thinks everyone is warm and caring, everyone is intelligent, all seem to be without hallucinations of greatness, none suffering from Narcisism ... she loved them all. She managed to get a long yarn with Helen to whom she has taken a shine.
 
Finished a PhD with 3 top boxes in 2009. It is the single most unread piece of high-quality research in the English-speaking world. 
I am currently attempting to:
[a] establish a blog where I will advance my researched views [finding the blog very difficult to est]
[b] up-date my thesis with current data so that those who do not read it will be not reading the best of up-to-date research in this field
[c] ignore the fact that I turn 70 this year.

 
I am grappling with Facebook and welcome all to connect.
 

Very active in the Rural Fire Service, especially as President of the Trail Bike Squad which comprises 20 men [no women now] who patrol the fire trails of the Central Coast throughout the year.
