I'm willing to lie about how we met....

Ok let's face it, meeting someone online is not the fairy tale we were all expecting, right? A few of my friends have been trying the online dating thing recently and said it was good, so I thought I would give it a try.

I'd say I'm down to earth, positive, honest and kind. I enjoy socialising and I like to try new things and travel to new places. I don't take myself too seriously and am willing to embarrass myself in front of people (as long as I'm having a good time!). I also definitely feel that life is too short, so find myself saying "well, you only live once" probably too often to always be making rational decisions.

What would you do if you only had one day left to live?

I currently work in the head office strategy department of a retail company

Laughing at myself

I'm very open and honest and usually smiling (but not in the gormless way!)

The Sting...best movie of all time; I hate horror movies. My taste in music is pretty eclectic ranging from rolling stones to euro techno with Mumford and Sons somewhere in the mix. I enjoy good food and eat pretty much everything (except mushrooms). I like to read books I can learn something interesting from. On TV at the moment I really like How I Met Your Mother.

What the best super power would be, how cool it would be to go to the moon, why it always seems slower going than coming home, why cake turns hard and cookies turn soft, how annoying the American spell check is on okcupid, if there really is such thing as big foot...

Trying new restaurants and bars and exploring all of the other mysteries London has to offer...and trying to find big foot

You think we would get on well and you want to find out more about me and/or you also find the use of "lol" really annoying...
