In His Own Words
About him
I am a professional man, retired, ex private school and Oxford, now enjoying living in the country (with fairly frequent trips to London for the theatre, dinners, galleries etc.), actively engaging in country sports, collecting pictures and trying to care for my house and garden. I have been divorced about 15 years. I remain on very good terms with my two adult children, my co-in-laws and my grandchildren. I am a relaxed person with a cheerful, optimistic personality and a dry sense of humour. I relate best to an intelligent lady of similar background, a positive personality and an irreverant sense of humour.
About his ideal match
A lady who is intelligent, stylish, cheerful, confident of herself and possessing a wicked sense of humour, yet naturally feminine, responsive and tactile. Someone from the same social background who has no 'hang-ups' about country activities and sports and enjoys the company of those who engage in them. A lady who lives or would live in the country by choice, likes dogs, enjoys her home and garden but is happy to be in town from time to time for the theatre, dinner, galleries etc. Someone who does not smoke, who takes pride in her appearance, who has good dress sense and who likes cooking (because my cooking is rather simple), eating out, light hearted banter and civilised intelligent conversation. Willingness to take part in gentle skiing would be a bonus.
