Hey, how's everyone??





Hi, I've just discovered this website after thinking there must be others out there like me!

I'm not daft, don't think I'm the only one, lol. Just thought it was about time I got my act together and spoke to others, as you don't really bump into people in the street and find out they have a colostomy, etc.

So here I am, looking for fellow lads in the UK to chat with, maybe meet up sometime for a pint, etc.

So, apart from what's on my profile, here's more about me.

I'm from the Liverpool area, not long moved back from London. I'm gay, but don't panic, straight lads out there, I'm not going to try to jump you, lol.

I'm hopefully seen as the lad next door type. I'm pretty chilled and easy-going. I think my only hang-up is that I'm tripping myself up, covering up if I ever meet anyone with excuses and stuff, if you know what I mean?

So there you go, very brief, but if you want to know more, give me a shout. It would be great to hear from you.


And I've noticed no one seems to comment back on blogs, so come on, everyone, say hi!!


Cheers

Hello Lad, I just signed up today & your profile popped up so I thought I'd say G'Day....lol....Having a stubbie now (pint), as it's a hot summer Friday night here in Australia. Hope you're well & enjoying yourself, as I'm not sure what time it is there!!! lol Anyway, are you into camping? DD

Hi Scouser Lad, I'm Noel living in Brum but I'm from Huyton and I have had the bag for 19 years so I'm an expert now with dealing with any problems. I'm not a full member but maybe we could chat here, Noel.

Hi mate, I am from the Wirral, just over the way from you. I too am gay and have an ileostomy, so I know what you are or have been going through. Hopefully, if ever you are online, we will be able to chat in the chatroom. Always happy to chat and give advice where I can, or maybe you can give me some advice.
