Hmm....im crap at this sort of thing
Thats actually me in the photo...I went thru a spell of taking a gas mask to work (in the city) thats me larking about at a barbque at a pub..(altho i reckon i scared a few people witless !!)

Im 32...and am a geek for an investment bank.
Hate technolgy ironicly...hence the alottment i scare with "srumpyjack" (my old flatmate).

Im 6ft tall and about 12 and a half stone. I got shortish blond hair and blue eyes.

I like reading, playing the guitar crapply, digging, whacking, thrashing, cutting and bashing (not people !)

I live near Kingston In Surrey.

And apparently i fancy Emma Jane ?!?!? (according to my fellow lotmenter)

I had not really noticed this thread before.

I am 50,a failed academic,then a failed civil servant-but doing quite nicely as a `kept man`

Been known to flirt a bit but deep down inside my secret fetish is growing tomatoes.

With respect,  may I suggest that we keep this historic site for profiles, and discuss posting images under the 'computer/internet' heading?? See you there? = Tim

Having read all your profiles, thought I would add mine.  Just coming up to retirement age, so hope to cut work to part time (more time for gardening).  Born and brought up in SE London then after I married moved around a bit finally settling in Central Scotland in the early seventies.  Have one daughter who is 40 (she'll kill me for telling you that).  I run a small company which does printed circuit board design ???  My husband of 41 years is not a gardener, but watches the gardening programs to tell me what I should be doing and what I am doing wrong.  Use to have a private pilots licence until it became too expensive so now enjoy walking up the hills instead of flying over them.

Just to let you all know, I will be adding my background here shortly.  Watch this space.

Wasnt sure whether to do this or not, but having read other profiles I feel I dont want to be left out.

I live less than a mile away from Mimi  ;D who works at a community hospital with two of my husband's cousins. 'Tis a small world!!!!

For Christmas, my hubby, Robin bought me a Shed - well, the wood for one and he is still working on building it. He is currently outside painting the wood with cuprinol before making it into the door for the shed. Hopefully, soon, another of his cousins will help him bolt the shed together. Unfortunately, Mimi and I aren't on the same allotment site. Mine is near the community hospital. There is a small "farm" - well, stables for a couple of horses and a cow which we are allowed to have the manure from. There aren't as many stones in my plot (poor Mimi - I have seen some of her stones - well, building rubble).

Me, I am a full time mum of one - his nickname in mIRC chat is MultiBonzo (or just Bonzo) and he is a vegetable defoliator/helper. He said my cabbages and onions needed transplanting, so pulled them up but then left them on the surface for me to find a couple of days later (too late to rescue). Bonzo is only 2 and a half years old.

Before that I was an Open University student, after not fully concentrating on my studies at a red brick university. I was married before and basically, that was not good for my studies - I got a third class honours. I moved around the country trying to get a work that would use my degree. Schoolmates who didn't go to uni are doing a lot better than me - one ended up being a departmental manager (maybe higher) in WHS, and me, well, not had any work that used my degree - sometimes I think going to university was a complete waste of time.

Not a lot I can say after that....
