About Me

I'm Gerard from Carlisle. I'm a lawyer looking at the wrong end of forty but also looking forward to one hell of a party! Still feel 10 years younger and wish I was. Hobbies include socialising, (too much) drinking, reading, films and football - I'm a recent convert to the pleasures of Carlisle United (thanks Cheryl) but still have a big soft spot for Man City who I've followed for 19 years, mostly as an armchair supporter. I also enjoy tavelling and have travelled widely around Europe over the last few years. My need to sample foreign beers far outweighs the greenhouse effct (kidding, all you greens). Married - no kids - which is probably how I afford the travel.

My Interests

You Are a Peacemaker Soul
You strive to please others and compromise anyway you can.
War or conflict bothers you, and you would do anything to keep the peace.
You are a good mediator and a true negotiator.
Sometimes you do too much, trying so hard to make people happy.

While you keep the peace, you tend to be secretly judgmental.
You lose respect for people who don't like to both give and take.
On the flip side, you've got a graet sense of humor and wit.
You're always dimplomatic and able to give good advice.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who would broaden my horizons or, failing that, who just likes a bit of light hearted banter - but be warned, I was brought up on Carry On films and it shows - Ooh matron! Specifically, would like to meet Rod Hull and Emu, but hey, one out of two wouldn't be bad,

Music:

All sorts : REM, Kaiser Chiefs, Pink Floyd, Damien Rice, Oasis, The Killers,The Kooks, Snow Patrol, Keane,Kings of Leon, the Beatles etc etc and I'm really into Nerina Pallot - who? She's good, try her.

Television:

All sorts of crap that I really shouldn't watch but I like 24, Extras, Dr Who, Dragons' Den, and sadly enjoyed Primeval.

Books:

From classics like The Grapes of Wrath, Germinal and Great Expectations to modern books like The Time Traveller's Wife, The Lovely Bones, the five People you Meet in Heavan and Slow Man. Also To Kill a Mockingbird remains a favourite and I like Stephen King too.

Heroes:

Always thought of Atticus Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird as a role model, and my Dad of course.
