Probably been said previously in this thread but I love to hear birdsong. I used to have a robin that would visit my garden every day and sing his little heart out. I always felt better for his presence. :)

Yes, I think for some of us, they do. I deliberately try and 'flatline' my mood now because I know that periods of happiness are almost always followed by terrible bouts of depression.

For most of my life I coped with loneliness by pursuing hobbies and spending a lot of time outdoors. I've always had a great love of nature and felt more at peace with the world when I was surrounded by trees rather than people. A couple of years ago though, things changed and I lost interest...

Jeans, Eric Cantona t-shirt ("When the seagulls follow the trawler etc."), modified flip-flops.

Hehe. Scruffy honeysuckle is my default mode of dress.

With the weight gain I've put on of late, no I wouldn't. The calls would come flooding into Greenpeace..... Hey, I think we got a beached whale here. :P

Others have pretty much said my feelings on the matter but here's my 2 cents anyway. Women are not difficult to understand, don't put them up on pedestals or they will have a long way to fall. I'm rapidly approaching my 50's now and HONESTY is always the key to any lasting relationship.

I was put on the sick a few years ago due to chronic health problems. Unemployment doesn't bother me in the least, but then my whole self-worth isn't tied into receiving a pay cheque at the end of the month.

Don't dwell on the past, or worry about the future. Concentrate on the present.

The Hobbit.

Relieved. Woke up from a *very* bad dream. :(

I probably go to the cinema alone 2-3 times a year and love it! I usually go midweek when there's hardly anybody else there - it's like having your own private screening, perfect!

Watching Twin Peaks.

I do the usual thing an introvert does - watch tv, read, play online games etc. Occasionally, I really push the boat and out, and converse with the dog.

Heya, I'm originally from the Northwest part of the UK but currently live in the Midlands with my girlfriend. Hmm, re. the safety thing..... I think I would err on the side of caution; if you're planning on wandering off the beaten track so-to-speak, I would try and hook up with a friend...
