I was on holiday in Rhodes with my girlfriend, who happily pointed out my resemblence to a picture of a Satyr hanging on the wall of the hotel bedroom when I ran in from the shower.

Something to do with me being short with hairy legs and other stuff that cant be mentioned in polite company......
 
I left home at 18 to join the RAF, went out and enjoyed life and generally lived life to the full! I didn't have any regard for anyone I left behind, I was pretty selfish and believed the world evolved around me. That was 20 odd years ago...

After I came out and split up from my first wife, I did come to my senses, grew up and finally got the courage to apologise to my Mum for the way I behaved, she referred to me as her Prodigal Son and forgave me, as parents always do!

I use it now as a bit of a penance and because it seemed fitting.
 
Its a forum name I have had since I was 19 or so. The avatar is Sagat off Streetfighter who was a Thai boxer. I did thai boxing for 5 years so that avatar was used on many of the other forums I go on. ....in time I will find something a little more 'bushcrafty'.
