Update, (Apr 2011): I had no working computer/internet connection for quite a while, and my 'online time' was severely rationed.

My sincere apologies to everyone who tried to memo me, who I didn't get back to! Hopefully things are fixed, but just to be safe - don't hold your breath.

A Brief Bit About Me

A slightly more minimalist profile approach, (for me), this time...

I'm a friendly and open-minded individualist by nature.

I've a great many interests and BDSM is just one of them, (and I really do mean it when I say *many* interests btw). BDSM has always been a part of my sexual identity, however, even if I wasn't always able to label it.

I have mostly played behind closed doors, with happily adventurous partners. It has been a fun and interesting journey so far!

It's only in very recent years that I started to become more involved with "The Scene", as such. I'm still keen to explore, learn more, and surround myself with dark and exciting depravity.

I find labels limiting, but for what it's worth I usually describe myself as a Straight Sadomasochistic Switch.

Other stuff

Munches: I founded the Brighton U35 Munch, along with Freyja, who ran it with me. For a time, my good friend Jess was an indispensable part of the team too.

Following Freyja's recent amicable departure, I continued to run the munch, along with my friend Mistress Alexis, and we were in the process of totally revising it, the munch evolving into something different. It was given the temporary, (and rather cringe-worthy - but we were feeling creatively challenged), working title of, "Young at Heart - Brighton Munch", and was no longer age restricted, but run on a demo/workshop/topical-theme basis.

As of April 2011, we have now joined forces with the remaining active organisers of the Brighton Angelic Munch, to form the new Brighton Unified Munch, which replaces the Brighton U35/Young at Heart Munch and the Brighton Angelic Munch.

It takes place on the 1st Sunday of the month at the Caroline of Brunswick pub, on Ditchling Road in Brighton, (right near 'The Level'), with use of the private upstairs room.

Confession: I'm not very socially active in cyberspace, so that's why my presence here has always been rather half-arsed. I'm more of a face-to-face kind of person. You can still send me a message though!

Though often distracted, I always have an interest in people, and like to make time for them. I have little interest or time for general 'bullshit', boredom, or petty interpersonal politics and scene bickering.

I also now have another profile on IC, which is more geared towards being a, (probably laughably crap), personal Ad. It is Incarnate.
