Old Kid On The Bloc
Hi,
I’m an old kid that’s just dusted off his objective for the first time in a while. I think there must have been some bugs in there as I’ve been bitten and need more heavily action.
I’m originally from the UK but have lived in Asia for over 10 years.
Hope you don’t get peed off with the torrent of questions that are bursting to escape from me.
