About me

I'm honest, open and loyal. I'm kind, caring and sensitive. I'm told that I'm intelligent, funny and have a sexy English accent. I've been hurt, but then haven't we all? I'm a tactile, loving person and (I think) a good lover. I love movies of all kinds, 80s music (yes, I'm a straight Duranie!!!), history, writing (I would like to be published), cricket and reading. I drink too much coffee, but that's pretty much my only vice. I'm not competitive except at Trivial Pursuit and I work with people with disabilities helping them to find and keep jobs. I'm finishing a counselling diploma and... I have a limp. How I walk doesn't bother me and, in fact, has helped me to be a kind, empathetic person, which must be a good thing.

I live in the beautiful Whitsundays, which is a friendly paradise and one of the nicest parts of the world, I think. If you like any part of what you have just read, then drop me a line and we can take things from there.

Hope to hear from you soon. If I don't, I wish you all the best in your search. We all deserve happiness - which after all, is what really matters in life.

See you soon,
Andrew x

Reading:
Favourite book of all time - "Birdsong" by Sebastian Faulks
Matthew Reilly when I want some brainless fun, but I think he loses ground with every new book these days...
Ben Elton - he's funny and serious at the same time. Love his stuff!

NOT Big Brother!

How about Life on Mars, Doctor Who, Goodnight Sweetheart (UK time travel theme here...), The Office (UK or US - both good)
Food/dining:
I like watching Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares!

Anything Italian is just fine by me, but sometimes we just fancy fish and chips, don't we?
Sports/fitness:
I keep fit at home (push ups and sit ups in front of the TV); when I DO go to the gym I love the rowing machine.
