Born in 1962 in Essex and not a natural blonde hair in sight - although plenty of blonde moments in my time - moved to Wheatley just outside Oxford with a promotion at work when I was in my very early twenties and that was where and when I came out - or rather that was my first trip into a gay bar - a tuesday night at The Jolly Farmers! Things soon worked out that I had a part time job and then a full time one as the bar manager. It was a fantastic time of learning for me and has probably helped shape me to what I am now!

After various changes in career I decided to teach myself web design - you can easily confuse me with all of the technological terms but I enjoy it. Peter says I am cheap ..... but that's another story for another day!


Generally I enjoy all sorts of stuff, you know how it is, if the mood takes me then I'll have a go. Love our home and love the garden too - enjoy sitting out in it as well when the sunny (and warm) weather does come round. Also like to surf the net and chat to friends from all over the World - like a good debate too. I have very strong opinions but will always listen to what others have to say - I might not agree though! I love music, from cheesy disco to high energy oldies (brings back memories) and classical stuff to well almost anything really - as long as it's fun and not depressing!

Here's a list of other stuff I enjoy 1) Good movies - I must be getting old now because sad bits in films make me cry - that's why I love a movie with a "feel good" factor and I am a very keen sci-fi fan too. 2) Good friends I enjoy hanging out and having a laugh, with just the occassional serious bit now and then. 3) Travel, prefer foreign climes, but the UK is OK too 4) Food (cooking it, eating it and enjoying it with friends) 5) Photography and 6) Shopping! (I am a gay man after all) - not going to tell you any more otherwise you won't have anything to ask.
