About Me

I've been a 50's Rock'in dude since the mid 70's and creating Art and Design from the late 60's ,,,,my grand -dad was an artist, I was Six and he helped me widen my Viewpoint,,life , the universe..and beyond,,,,into in-finitely. I'm also 100 0/0 per cent full on Neo - Edwardian / style or pre - teddy boy,,,for me a full drape 3 or 2 piece suit is smart old time style is the most,,a thing of the past that still turns heads of the well dressed to the great un-washed. A pioneer friend of said to me in 1977 " why do the idiots think we go out to look for touble with 3 months wages on ower back's....it was the jealous boyfriends, pig head husbands and borring dance hall managers that came at you to mess you up,,,in the late 40's n early 50's..the thing was they could not win and still can't.."Real Rock 'n ' Roll has kept me strong...its the crazy beat on life's journey as I move along. man I'm gone ,.......... ALONG WITH THE MEDICINAL BENEFITS OF VERY STRONG REAL ALE AND A FINE CIGAR . and REMEMBER " GENE VINCENT "

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

50's Rock'in cats & Kittens, fellow Neo - Edwardians. artist/designier and cool creatives.... smartly dressed / not fancy dress hot 'n cold".Rock'in Ladies "(without.the need for.. lots of tattoos( one or two ok ya ) / body piercing,fake tan,pretend - children,,,e.gsoft toys, pets hospital and no bottled water drinkers) & no jive bunnies,,,part time rockers / dress n' wear rock'in style for the weekend,,,even then they look n' act like clowns,,and go to rock'in do's to keep fit,,,,I 'd like to fit them into a wooden over coat,,,,Jive Bunnies are a fifth column in ower midst,,They don't understand cool style and would n't recognize the real deal if it was in their face,,,,,,,,,,, I'm an old school gentleman and I treat a lady with respect ,,,,,but not if they are ruff as....well leave it there.
