icarmichael / Ian Carmichael

G’day. I’m a teacher. Maths, science, computing, philosophy, religion, theology. I’m a reader (and book gatherer) Biography, physics, maths, computing, history, science fiction and fantasy, Terry Pratchett, Alexander McCall Smith, Ursula LeGuin and Brian W Aldiss deserve their own category, theology, religious topics, ethics, philosophy, science and religion. I’m a humour lover - from funny poetry (Australian bush yarns to Stanley Holloway’s ‘Sam’ performances), monologues, radio shows Goon Show, I’m Sorry I’ll Read that Again, TV: Monty Python, People Like Us, Mr Gormsby… The lines, you can read between!
