My hobbies include most sports (especially the 'extreme' onessuch as parachuting, snow-boarding, skateboarding,mountain-biking, hangliding, rock climbing, roller-blading,potholing and parascending -- my parents drewthe line at base jumping, though), Football (soccer to those from the other sideof the pond), Land Rovers and computers. As you can see I'm justyour average 14-year-old nutter.

My musical tastes are 'varied' to say the least - I especiallylike the Prodigy, Hanson (of course!),Mike Oldfield, and even a limited amount of classical stuff(mainly Holst - his planets suite has some really moving parts init). I also play* the bass guitar and the drums if I'm forced to.(* Please note you could quite easily replace the word playwith make a noise with, or, more likely, annoypeople with.)

I attend a co-ed boarding school on the Derbyshire /Staffordshire border. There are about 200 pupils ranging from 10- 18 in about a 4:3 boy:girl ratio - yeah, hormones there areraging, but they all seem to be raging for the oppositesex which is annoying as hell. Ho hum... The good part is,however, it's a very "outward bound" school - outdooreducation is a timetabled "lesson" for forms one tothree (10 - 14 y/o) and plenty of trips such as walks, potholing,orienteering, abseiling, gorge-scrambling and climbing areregularly put on for our mutual enntertainment for anyone whowants to go. The school also has a full working farm which iscompletely run by the pupils, mostly those taking a GCSE or 'A'level in Agriculture and / or Biology. Personally, I think itstinks and stay as far away from there as possible...

As for my sexuality - well, as far as I'm concerned I'm gay,AND I'M NOW OUT AND PROUD!! If anyone who knows me personally'sreading this - IT'S TRUE!! As good a way to comeout as any, I suppose

I'm 5'7" tall (just measured myself again...) and weighabout 8 stone. I have shoulder length brown hair that simply refusesto stay anywhere I want it and hazel-coloured eyes. I suppose youcould say I'm fairly well built - typical soccer player's body -and am permanantly horny. Then again, do you know anyone my agewho isn't gagging for it?

No. Thought not...

Anyway, here's that FAQ thingy I promised. The majority ofthese (so far) have come from four "rounds" of e-mailsessions between me and Greg (you know who you are!). Bypublishing these, hope you'll get a slightly better idea of who Iam...

You just won the lottery. What do you do with themoney?

Ermmm - tough one, this... I suppose after buying myself aKilostream line to the internet (one of my must-haves). I'd liketo try to do something to encourage "kids like me" toexpress themselves a bit more: Provide a shoulder to cry on forthose that want it, and activities and meetings around thecountry. Idealistic I know, but I can't honestly think ofanything I'd rather spend my money on! I'm fairly easy toplease...

What do you do when you have time to yourself?

At school, I generally hang around with my mates, play a bit ofBadminton, kick a football around or write. At home, I tend toprat around with my computer, go blading (usually for hours onend - quite good thinking time!), read, listen to music, andwrite.

If you could have any superpower,what would it be andwhat would you do with it?

Now this is a toughie - I think it'd have to be being able tofly. I've only ever flown a few times (usually in a glider ormicrolite) and love the sense of freedom and perspective you get.Some people feel close to nature when they go walking - I feel itwhenever I'm in the air...

What has been your most embarrassing moment so far inyour life?

Ermmm - probably during a school play last term when I was backstage on a small gantry stage left. I grabbed onto what I thoughtwas a pole for support - It was actually a rope and I swung ontothe stage Tarzan-like and broadsided the lead actor, much to theamusement of the 500-strong audience!

What shade is your skin?

Fairly pale at the moment - I tend to get a real good tan duringthe summer but it fades as quick as hell (within a couple ofweeks) so in the winter I always look a bit pastey!

Do you have any birthmarks/tattoos/scars/etc.? Ifso,where?

I've got a pair of almost exactly paralell lines about an inchand a half long and about a quarter of an inch apart at aforty-five degree angle on the back of my left shoulderblade.

Where on your body do / would you like to be kissed?

Apart from the obvious?! Ermmm, strangely enough, my fingers!I've heard of toe-fettishes, but my fingers feal real good to me!(although I've never sucked my thumb...)

What is your favourite part of your body?

Probably my legs. It's the only part of me that I feel I've donea fairly good job with! Being a soccer player helps no end...

The thought of sex in / through / with boxers and / or briefs!

Let's say I'm Taylor Hanson or someone you have acrush on and your taking me out on a date. Where would we go andwhat would we do?

I'm not ultra-experienced in the dating game, but it'd have to besomething really romantic - like a couple of rounds of paintball,good junk-food meal (McDonalds or such) followed by a movie thena "quiet" evening...

What do you watch on TV?

I'm one of these semi brain-dead people who'll watch TV for thesake of it, but DayTime TV is a no-no... Fave programmes areprobably "The X-Files", "Third Rock from theSun", anything MTV, "The Simpsons" and CartoonNetwork's "Cow and Chicken".

Has to be everything below the waist. Legs, arses, and to acertain extent, feet.

2 - That I could be with Lee (my boyfriend as of a couple of daysago) all the time

3 - That people would be a little more open-minded about"our sort"...

What do you wear to bed?

Boxers and a T-shirt

What has been the best thing that's happened in yourlife so far?

Coming out. Definitely. The shere weight of deception wasscrewing me in the head badly - I couldn't talk to people easilyand my (usually fairly good) grades were sliding to the wrongside of crap... I needed to do something, and that was theblanket solution to the majority of my problems in the longrun...

If you could change anything about your life sofar,what would it be?

Ermm - now that I gave myself the kick up the arse to come out, Iwish I'd done it sooner. Not, like, years ago - perhaps 9 - 12months - it would've made life a lot easier...

Name someone,famous or not,dead or alive that youadmire? Not have a crush on, admire...

Ermm, Mark Knopfler from Dire Straits (how the hell can you playthe guitar like that??)
