Completely tone deaf here. Despite being dragged to a million and one concerts by my parents and forced to take piano lessons for a few years, I couldn't tell you a thing about music and only have the vaguest idea who Kylie is. Blond Australian, right? I don't think I ever bought a CD in my life, which is also showing my age because people don't buy them any more, right?

Do you appreciate any art whatsoever? Are you actually a robot? Don't mean to be rude, just amazed that someone can have no connection with any music at all.

It doesn't matter whether it's the King's College choir or techno pop or whatever, it's all background noise to me.

Re: Your life as an expat v your previous life
Ah, that explains it... 
On the first year of my QS degree in Newcastle the course was shared with Architects. There was a guy who loved telling everyone he was an architect. Like every single seminar...hand would go up..."Hi, I'm an Architect".
To be fair, I wish I'd been an architect rather than a QS...
