Apart from a love of music and films (see below), my other main interests are photography, wildlife, travelling and web design/development. When I have the time I also enjoy reading, playing pool and I have been known to draw up a few astrological profiles in my time as well as providing illustrations and newsletter designs for Chaostrail (PBM game run by my other half) and I have written guides to the use of aromatherapy amongst other things. I love the colour purple, motorbikes, trying to play bass guitar, autumn days, thunder storms and bonfires.
I'd like to meet:
People who will contribute to my time, not waste my time.
"There are so many who would take my time
I shun them
There are some who share my time
I am entertained by them
There are precious few who contribute to my time
I cherish them".
Music:

You are My Dying Bride. You're recognised
throughout the world as a pioneering
goth/doom metal act. You like your songs
long, passionate, deep and dark. Despite
being marred with bad luck you continue to
keep going.
Your Theme Song is Back in Black by AC/DC
"Back in black, I hit the sack,
I've been too long, I'm glad to be back"
Things sometimes get really crazy for you, and sometimes you have to get away from all the chaos.
But each time you stage your comeback, it's even better than the last!
