About Me

I come from the Isle of Wight but oddly, I'm not the result of any inbreeding (despite what my mates will tell you..). In September, I fled to Bristol to escape a life of turnip farming into a life of...errr...turnip farming. I used to sail a fair bit but a few years ago, thanks to a mate moving to Switzerland, I discovered that water's a lot more fun when it's frozen. Back in the summer, whilst planning my escape, I applied for 2 jobs up here. I promised myself that if neither worked out, I'd take the winter off and go skiing. Unfortunately I got offered both. I can't really complain, it's a superb place to live.Get a MySpace layout like this one!

My Interests

I'm hooked on skiing, shredding hills (hopefully) takes up 3 weeks of my winter. Add to that mountain biking, sailing and fishing to take my mind off snow during the summer, although I'll have a go at pretty much anything that involves water (frozen or unfrozen) and the outdoors.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone interesting who's willing to do whatever and take a few risks in the name of fun...

Music:

I've had varied tastes over the years but currently I'm in an indie place: The Killers, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Maximo Park, Razorlight, Stone Roses, Faithless, Coldplay, Joy Division, New Order, The Pixies...
James are one of my favourites and The Shamen are truly awsome (no, really!).

Movies:

Saving Private Ryan, Snatch, Bourne Identity, Bourne Supremacy, Bad Boys II, Black Hawk Down...

Television:

Not too fussed by TV. Having said that I rarely miss Top Gear and Time Team rock!

Books:

Anything by Joe Simpson: Touching the Void, Dark Shadows Falling and The Beckoning Silence.

Heroes:

Whoever invented fig rolls...
