About Me

People say I'm:

artistic, funny, patient, good-natured
Describe Yourself:

An ageing hippie who's now in his 50s and is reverting to type; after years of keeping my hair relatively short and my beard neatly trimmed I've let it all grow back out. And I find myself getting both more radical and more tolerant and forgiving than I was back in the 60s.
On Gather, I'm Looking For ...:

Kindred spirits, which I seem to have found in abundance!
