Avoiding places like Kirkmuirhill I'm a bit of a lefty, but I'm more of a green. Are you doing your bit? I like opening people's ears to new music, which tends to be old music these days. Someone needs to fix that. Wheres the good music these days? I'm trying to learn how to cook. I started by going veggie - less ready meals. After that it was easy. Til I missed bacon too much. Now being a veggie is a distant memory, sadly. I like meat :o( Slow cooked Steak and red wine casserole or, crayfish tails in garlic chilli butter or, tomatoes and baby courgettes stuffed with Parma ham, basil and mozzarella with pasta I can do. The minute you ask me to crack an egg and make an omelette I might break down and cry in frustration. But I've learned how to both break eggs and cook omelettes now. I enjoy a good beer. Innis and Gunn is probably my favourite but I'm partial to whatevers on special. I drink whisky straight, it makes me manly. Ardbeg or Laphroaig, and I'm yours, oh baby. I enjoy visual art but I'm not too fond of the scene and all of its pretentions. I like to read on the great outdoors, in the comfort of my own bedroom. I pray every winter for a month long snow blizzard that I know will never come. An infinite nuclear winter will have to do. I like adventure sports. Mainly cycling - just bought a new mountain bike thats too expensive to leave unguarded, and canoeing, but I haven't done that in years. This will change soon. Hopefully.*Motivate Me to Keep Trying*.

All the people who have made me who I am
Flawless people, ha!
Forragers, hunters, farmers, vegetable growers, fisherman, craftsmen, home brewers, mechanics. People with real skills.
I'd also like to meet tall people, with the computer screen as a barrier. You can pretend to be tall if you want to. I won't know.
Sack it, I'd like to meet anyone.
