Eleven pointless facts about me...
1. I love rock climbing and bouldering, fell walking (started the Wainwrights last year, only 5 to go!), scrambling, enduro and downhill mountain biking and anything outdoorsy appeals, but when it comes to 'gym' time i'm all about the calisthenic and gymnastic approach...
2. I listen to metal and extreme music, but have a massive addiction to Bjork, Sleaford Mods and Ween. I like to think I'm the one to test the 'I'll listen to anything' claim...
Albums I'm obsessed with at the moment
Dope Body - Kunk
Crown - Natron
Ahab - The Boats of the 'Glen Carrig'
Ghost - Meliora
Liturgy - The Ark Work
3. I love coffee, but tend to drink it with butter blended in
4. I'm a meat eater but an ethical one
5. I have quite a lot of ink, two full sleeves, leg sleeves in progress, back piece to follow. I love having tattoos but I don't feel they define me, I'm not a tattoo person in that I don't go to conventions or consider them a big part of my life, and most of the time I forget they are even there...
6. I've lost a lot of weight recently (heading towards the 6 stone mark) and find myself not only in a good place in life, but also in large t-shirts for the first time in my life...
7. I have a neon pink bike...
8. After many years of wearing black heavy metal t-shirts I have recently discovered the wonders of colour, though not necessarily co-ordinated well...
9. I have two dogs, Border Collies, they're both idiots but people like them for some reason...
10. I read a lot and like to geek out on nutrition information, but absolutely love HP Lovecraft when it comes to fiction
11. I hate football...
Positive write ups from female friends:
'Has a certain neanderthal charm'
'Would appeal to a niche market'
'Wouldn't look as bad with a shave'
'Not as fat as you look in pictures'
'Honest, to a fault...'
I don't take myself seriously most of the time and like to enjoy life, have a laugh and laugh at myself. I'm pretty much game for trying most things, as long as they aren't outright likely to kill me! I can dress up and look neat but 99% of the time am likely to be in jeans and t-shirts, and covered in mud from various sources...
