I'm Derek a positive-punk (goth to most people), autistic Brummie living in North Wales, big heart, softie & romantic
Huge computer geek into retro video games, especially The 8bit Commodore C64, Amstrad CPC 464, ZX Spectrum etc, Linux, homelabbing with Proxmox vm's and Truenas, networking and fixing up laptops and tech for people (perfect IT support guy).
Some of my interests are reading (mainly self help books and biographies), Meditation/Reiki, hiking, cycling, Museums, learning languages which i speak a little Welsh, Mandarin & Japanese thanks to Duolingo. I love fantasy/Scifi and other TV series like Dr Who, Star Trek, Red Dwarf, Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, Wednesday, Downton Abbey, Big Bang Theory etc. I spend far too much time in record/book shops collecting records/books and sometimes traveling and drinking copious amounts of green tea.
75-85 is where it's at in terms of music from Punk, goth, New Wave, Two-Tone etc but i also love Rockabilly, Blues, Surf, Glam Rock, 70's Teddyboy, Prog, 60's R&B and Mod etc.
