Finally I've got round to updating my introduction. Thought I might as well since I’ve missed many people and I was once addicted to the “word association game”.
Name : Stuart (aka: Stoo, Tree Hugger
, Geabus, Skipper)Age: 27
Sex: boy
From: Sedbury (Nr. Chepstow, England. Have also lived in Sheffield, Birmingham, Buckingham, a cider museum in Dorset, Clovelly (E. Suburb of Sydney Aus) now live in Bath and Yeovil, England.
Occupation: Teacher of Science and ICT, teaching in Bristol Brunel Academy. Have been a School Science Technician, Student Support Staff (working with the pupils who are sent out the classroom and sorting them out), molecular ecologist, population ecologist, conservationist etc.
Hobbies: Horse riding, Juggling arts
, climbing, ultimate Frisbee and various others.Movies: Dark Crystal, Labyrinth, Star Wars, Cool Hand Luke, Casablanca, Lord of the Rings (pine for NZ when I watch those films), too many others to recount.
Books: Watership Down, War and Peace, Catch 22, The Dice Man, Lord of the Rings, Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy, All the Dune Books, Fear and Loathing in Las Vagas and so many more – these were the ones that changed me.
Music: A few years ago I would have answered Rock and Metal but now its anything I can juggle to.
Colour: green, like my eyes
Food: tiramisu
!!! Sooo good – had an Italian corner shop that sells fresh tiramisu but my girlfriend makes it for me!!! Chocolate, vegi food. Indian food – brought up on that stuff since my grandparents were brought up out there.Loves: life
Dislikes: life (double edged sword)
Ambition: to be mediocre at everything – I’ll be able to do everything without the pressure of living up to the accolade of being good!!!
Family details: too big to mention – I could cull them so that I can fit all the details in but that would be wrong.
I’m currently procratinating.
Many hugs
,Stoo.

Hellooooooooo,
I have finished my teacher training!!!
I have also moved in with Mel so I am now living in Chepstow. I have a job at my placement school until the end of this term in Salisbury - that means that I am travelling for 5 hours a day, leaving Chepstow at 6:30am to get to school for 9:00am!!!
But the pay is good I came 3rd in a dressage competition last Thursday - am proud of that as I have only been riding since the end of January - I beat people who have been riding for years!!!
And that's about all at the moment.
Look forward to seeing you all Falmouth.
Baba - Mel and I will be visiting over Summer

Looking forward to seeing you all soon,

Hi all,
just posting here to aplogise for being so crap of late. School has been taking over damn it -still the buggers from y11 will be leaving for good soon and quite possibly the laziest dumn witted people I have ever met will be going on their work experience soon. I will see many of you at Play should the Play website choose to work. The only news I have is that my garden is looking awesome and I now have my own horse. So I've been getting at lot of riding in.
See you soon, anyone wishing to spin in Chepstow (either by the river or the castle) please feel free to drop me a line.
