I rarely go out to drink, or crawl my way through several pubs/night clubs. I guess I'm past that stage and too sensible (or boring) to get any pleasure out of it (I'd sooner spend my money on new games/hardware).

Just like yourself, I am not a serial killer, or phsycopath of any kind - so just let me know your address, and I'll come round and prove it to you.

PS: Hope that answered your questions.

I will keep all of this in mind if I am in the area again. PM me your phone number if you like, I may call some time to see how you are, if its only in Edinburgh.....

As Phant put it, I am not lacking friends, nor am I going to lock you in my basement for thirty years .

If you do want to meet, I don't see why anyone would want to meet a 14 year old little kid, but if you do; send me a PM .

Again, if you PM me your phone number (AND REAL NAME - I don't want to be calling up and asking if Lord Zykon is in, or anything !! ) - then I might call you one time, or if I am near you geographically I could say hello.


Mr. Garibali and I met in real life a while ago, and even although all we did was have a few beers and talk and then the next day he visited my home for about 1.5 hour, it was still a good laugh and surely lots of people here have a lot of common interests.

Don't post your real name here if you don't want to, and CERTAINLY DON'T POST YOUR REAL PHONE NUMBER! Just advertise a little here and if someone is interested they should PM that person.

Man, already its like a dating agency. How sad are we!

Man, I would HAVE to be desperate to have to resort to some of you

However, I am of the opinion that one can never have too many friends - especially friends who are interested in computing. There's not enough people who are. At least, people who are and know a little about what they are talking about, anyway.

99% of people on this site are cool and I would invite them into my home.

Let's add an obscure location with accented characters in it.. :eek:

I live in a village called Ääsmäe, near our very own capital Tallinn (quiz point - Tallinn is the capital of Estonia (another quiz point - Estonia is located in Europe))

If anyone happens to have some business in this desolate corner of the world then they are welcome to let me know and perhaps get the chance to see my basement and chains

I suppose the geographically closest people to me are Mic and Per. I think Mic actually has been to Estonia, but I was young and dumb then - we didn't hook up

Aberdeen Scotland.

I'm flying out of Glasgow to go on holiday on the 30th of June, I'll probably be down the weekend before flying out so could arrange to meet up for a quiet drink or two then
