Introduction I thought this would be covered in the "interests" section...? Well, I'm male, pre-middle age but definitely no longer young. I like...the elsewhere mentioned things, amongst others. I'm a graduate (twice) from Nottingham Uni (twice), and I grew up in Plymouth, a criminally overrated town, which in no way benefits from being by the sea, is not "nice in summer", and is somewhere I would happily never go to again, if it wasn't for family and friends. Update (seems unnecessary): Moved back to Peterborough after a 16 year leave of absence. Pretty much up and down since then as my occasional rantings will no doubt testify.
Interests Hmmm...I always find this section to be a little self-indulgent, but here goes! I like most sport (have been known to fall asleep in front of the curling at 2am - hey, at least we're better than the Aussies right?), entertaining things, bad jokes and fine wines. I also like cheap wine, nice cheese, and beer. Running round is fun, in the context of sport. Otherwise...erm, no.
