I'm kind, generous, caring, thoughtful, reasonably open minded and a good listener. I'm shy at least first, I have very little experience of relationships so I screw up alot. I'm a rocker at heart and love rock music (you probably wouldn't think it to look at me). I'm not a traditionalist and prefer to be on a equal footing with the person i'm with, that said I do open doors etc as I don't think chivalry dead. My sense of humour can be quite dry and sarcastic. I enjoy taking walks and like nothing better than whiling away an afternoon with a stroll (it gives me plenty of time to think). I enjoy learning about history and a few of the day trips are to see places of historical importance. I start by trusting everyone as I think people are generally good. If I'm really interested in something I get so involved that the world around me just melts away. I don't suffer fools (especially when they're giving the orders) but paradoxically I'm prone to fits whimsy. I do hanker after a simpler life and enjoy nothing more than roast meats, good company and good ale.

I'm a computer programmer for a design agency (mostly enjoyable). I enjoy archery, reading, movies, drawing, painting and making chainmail (as in medieval armour). I'll try my hand at most things, a couple of last year I helped plant a vineyard. That was a lot of hard work, but ultimately rewarding (hopefully in 3-5 years they'll be some wine worth drinking). Playing the occasional video game (at the moment it's Skyrim).

Shooting arrows at an archery target.

I have a stutter, it's had a profound impact on my self confidence

You like the look and sound of me (obvious really).
