In His Own Words
About him
Currently owned by a Bengal Cat. Liberated him during COVID and won’t leave my side, but now seeking that special person for the next chapter of my life. I checked with him, and he’s OK with it.
I was married 20 years and have three great ‘young’ adults who I see regularly. The last 3 years have been a huge time of self reflection and has enabled me to rediscover art and music, which was my first love.
I think first and foremost I identify as an artist / creative soul, but never really worked in that field for money, instead doing jobs that paid regularly and were centred around people who were in need. I don’t think there’s anything more interesting than folk.
So a bit more insight into me. I recently read Grayson Perry's (he's a national treasure by the way) book 'The Descent of Man'. Seriously ladies, every guy should read it. It's only 145 pages and it has pictures too.
Last film I saw at the cinema was 'Wicked Little Letters' with my eldest who is a massive movie fan and I'm seriously considering perfecting my swearing skills - I'm joking by the way.
I get dragged along by my son to watch football. You will notice that I don’t even list it as a sport I like below, because truth be known I hate it the vast majority of the time. It's a miserable pastime and I struggle to understand why people get so up tight about it. The things I do to bring a smile to his face. Never watch it on TV. In fact I never really watch TV. Much prefer the radio.
I know lots of ladies love to travel and I’m not adverse to it. Seen most of the UK, lots of Europe and further a field. In fact as far away from the UK you can possibly get. Oh that occasion I felt homesick, and wanted to come back home. I believe people make places.
Photographs are all current, so what you see is what you get.
About his ideal match
- Supportive
- Interdependent
- Laughs at my jokes and tells me so.
- Kind to people and animals (I'm with Ricky Gervais on that one)
- Honesty please, and no mind games, (I'm really not that good at them).
- Accepts that both of us had lives before, and now it's time to move on and not to dwell on the negative experiences of the past. Life is short and it's not a dress rehearsal.
