About Me

a middle distance runner trying to sprint a marathon.

My Interests

swimming, mooching, nattering, reading, gigging, pubbing, watching, judging, cuddling, laughing.

I'd like to meet:

brutes, losers, perverts, weirdos, arseholes, dickheads, sluts, posers, fakers and general scumbags. there totally are not enough of you in this world.

failing that, smart folks who don't argue about pop music and are up for the crack (but not crack, obviously).

Music:

is my beach hut

Movies:

AMERICAN NINJA II: THE CONFRONTATION

truly madly deeply, love story, the goodbye girl, great expectations (1946 version), brief encounter, thank you for smoking, hedwig and the angry inch, shaun of the dead, this is spinal tap, pretty in pink, history boys, little miss sunshine, Brighton Rock..

Television:

Books:

novels
