Hello everybody. Well I've been reading steemit articles and posts for months, but its taken me all summer to decide to join! Mainly because I'm one of those people who kind of throw myself into something fully once I start, so I have learnt the hard way to make sure something is really what I want first.
My name is Sam Black, usually known as Inky. I live in UK, and am interested in anything legal that helps me avoid the drudgery of a 9-5 job. I dabble in bitcoin and altcoins, and am always on the hunt for buried metal. Sadly I havent yet dug up a pot of gold, or even a single gold coin, bit I live in hope. And meanwhile my right arm is getting stronger and I'm getting an amazing collection of old horseshoes. Maybe I'd do better digging in city gardens, but open fields have more appeal to me.
I also like to think that I'd be a survivor if society broke down and I had to feed myself , build a shelter etc. In reality I suffer from severe panic attacks if I notice my mobile phone has less than 50% battery power left so perhaps I'm just kidding myself.
I am old enough to remember putting a hand written letter into an envelope, and young enough not to have had to lick a stamp to put on it, just peel off a self-adhesive one from a little book. But I still toy with the idea of putting biro to paper again one day.
At the same time as appreciating history and tradition, I love living in this age of technical advancement.
