Update Aug 2008:-
About Me:--nearly 47yrs old, average build having lost 4st with S/World last year.
I have short shaven hair, tattoo,s on arms & lower back which can be covered if the occassion calls for. I work full time,(all dayshift-wkends off). I have been without a partner now for over two years and my divorce absolut was granted Jan 08 following the breakdown of a 23yr marriage. I have 3 kids{adults now} who live with me, 18 + 21 girls, son 23 who is in army but comes home on leave sometimes.
ps..sorry girls but i detest the thrase LOL....
Interests:--motorbikes-which stops the boredom from setting in, Camping-either in car or with motorbike, holidays in the sun at least once a year(love canaries,Jan or Feb), Fishing, also keen on photography and would like to do a course to learn more.
P.s.-you dont have to like my hobbies, just have to like me.......
Looking For:--This is the hardest bit. If you have ever cheated on a partner in your adult life please pass me by. Honesty and trust are important, looks should not be but unless there is some sort of attraction then things would not progress..
In an ideal world i would like contact, meeting, dating, and hopefully soulmate. Someone to share the ups and downs of life and support each other through the good and bad times and the happy and sad times.
I like children so dont mind if you have any or what ages they are..
Finially:-- I am fairly shy and I am guilty of looking and reading a lot of profiles on this site over and over again. No pic no reply, distance not too important, good luck to all and happy fishing.

update:-hoping to attend Newcastle meet at Shearer's Bar on Frid 22nd Aug,(my first one) so if you are there please say hi.(still not sure if I can make it??).
Off to southern ireland on motorbike 14th aug for 4days, so will catch up with any messages when I return....Happy fishing to all...{back now, it was a wash out}

P.S. starting to grow goatie again (dont know if I will keep it though????)
