Ben Adlam - Rock & A Bacon Roll

I am here for Friends

About Me

A description of my traits by a psychology student : does not make friends easily, secretive, introverted, reclusive, observer, dislikes leadership, somewhat socially awkward, does not like to stand out, dislikes large parties, values solitude, solitary, avoidant, ambivalent about fitting in, not dominant, unassertive, suspicious, prudent, unadventurous, worrying, weird, intellectual, does that sound like me to you? What can I say about me? Anybody interested? Well I work in a factory, I live with my fiancee and our 10 year old son. I play an obscene amount of poker, I listen to lots of music and read lots of books. I go and watch Liverpool occaisionally and sometimes go to the pub...anybody ever read George & Wheedon Grossmith? Familiar? :5YNWA J96 18:5Currently rediscovering RYM.com, so seem to be spending a lot of time uploading lately, have a go

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Anybody I need to apologise to (having bit of a "My Name Is Earl" moment). Anybody I knew in a previous life. Anybody who knows me.
