Hi folks, I'm Vigilias but you can call me Vig.
I came to Earth in an egg and I live in a post-industrial backwater by the name of St Helens in Merseyside which is about 12 miles from Liverpool, as the crow flies... although the train is a much more comfortable form of transport. The main religion in these parts is St Helens (Saints) Rugby League.
I joined this site after coming across an email from Marshlander du Marsh that had been sitting in one of my folders for about 2 years. We both used to contribute to the gay.com forums before they all went crap-shaped. They probably blamed me for that, along with the Schism from the catholic church, two World wars and the fact that dishes are generally circular whilst sinks are square.
I have been described as a biological database of matters legal, and health and a few other things it wouldn't be appropriate to go in to in this, my "maiden speech".
I have a wealth of experience gained from the voluntary sector to observations of the calamities of others. I have three and a half (long story) relationships to draw on as well as my time spent as a salaried advisor for the UK Dept of Healt National Help Lines. There I gave advice and information to callers on issues surrounding HIV/AIDS/General Sexual Health, Drug Misuse and Alcohol abuse.
I have been an active member of the Merseyside Lesbian and Gay Community Forum (Police Liaison Working Group) and one of these days I might even attend a meeting! It was a policeman who told me what Dogging was - I was shocked, but not as shocked as I was last week when I learned what Roman Showers were. It just goes to show, I haven't heard everything - yet.
I hope you'll find my contributions helpful. I believe in experience being the best teacher. If you want to go and jam your finger in the socket I'll simply advise that it's not a good idea but far be it for me to deny you the experience, but you'll find I was right, or pretty much there abouts.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have work to do.
If anybody needs me, I'll be in my bucket!
