Hi there guys

Who I Am

Hi guys, I'm Ian. 6'2" Med build, short dark hair, most of the rest you can see from the pic. Well I am very easy going, open minded and up for meeting new friends, having new experiences, going new places and generally trying to have fun along the way. Life is not a dress rehearsal and we need to make the most of it. I work very hard during the week and have a stressful job like most of us do, so the time when I am not at work should be spent in the most productive way I can, as time is flying by. In the immortal words of James Dean; `Dream as if you will live forever, live as if you will die today!`

Who I am Looking To Meet

Looking for genuine, honest, open minded guys for friendship possibly a relationship, who knows! New friends add to lifes experiences and make us who and what we are. The more people we meet the more we learn and the more we experience and share, so come on guys, if I`ve not sent you to sleep yet, drop me a note. Take the chance!
