Hey guys,
I forgot to introduce myself, so I'll go ahead and do it now.
I'm Nick, I'm 20 years old and I'm from Yorkshire in England. Taken a couple of Aikido and Kickboxing classes so far (may possibly be looking at Ju-Jutsu instead of Aikido, going to go tomorrow night and try Ju-Jutsu out) and just getting a feel for martial arts. I am pretty slim but live off of junk food, smoke, and like a nice pint of lager now and again. An interest in martial arts since I was a kid has led me to start them up and try and keep a little fit, stop smoking (went cold turkey, 5 weeks without one and I am not feeling the craving at all.. go me! ), and try and eat/drink a little healthier, which is proving very difficult.
I have a big interest in the outdoors too. I love the whole 'getting back to nature' experience and it's frustrating that to do anything of the sort requires money (what doesn't these days!) so at the moment I'm stuck with the odd camping weekend, when I'd like to be spending significant periods of time in the wilds fishing, hunting and all that good stuff - basically just seeing what it's like to live that way for a little bit.
Anyway, I've rambled on for waaaaay to long. Good to be here, you all seem like a good, passionate, friendly bunch, so expect to see me posting some more. I need to get paid for something, so it may as well be surfing internet forums instead of working.
Nick
