In His Own Words

About him

Energetic, passionate, hard- working and sincere, always with a sense of fairness and social justice. Perhaps a little shy at first (outgoing introvert?), with a dry sense of humour with the right company. I am sensitive to others feelings. Friends would describe me as loyal, caring, passionate and always up for trying new experiences and activities - love to travel and still harbour living abroad at sometime in my life (Tuscany and south of France favourites at present) . I am not without flaws - but are any of us?

Love to be near sea and mountains. Have achieved this now living just south of Dublin city in Ireland, my country of birth), but also at home exploring new cities and discovering things off the beaten track : always more fun with a special someone though.

Originally from north of Ireland: miss "the crac", but spent many year in Scotland :near Edinburgh and now in Dublin Ireland.However, I know I remain restless. Accept I may have to travel to find that right someone.

Have been committed work-wise, but perhaps time now to take more time to relax, take time for my-self, take the opportunity to travel more. Love people watching/ observing : sitting in a square with a drink- much better fun with that special someone.to laugh and share observations. So many more places to explore. I love week-ends away and wandering and exploring cities I have never visited or discovering something new.

Cinema, theatre, history, exploring and sport will always have a place in my life. I can be sensitive; even quiet in new company, but always passionate about things I believe in and will always seek new experiences. I like to be active. I have varied music tastes, - From Van Morrison to indie, to classic, to jazz - it depends on what I hear and my mood!

Since moving to Dublin got back into jogging and running half marathons and visiting towns and cities to jog has been fun. I keep fit and believe I am fitter than most my age.

About his ideal match

Someone who is attractive but in many different ways and not just physical. Eyes are features that catch my eye and can instantly attract and intrigue!.The willingness to like me for what I am and not what I should or could be. A willingness to share and laugh together at some crazy everyday thing! To be willing to have some (but not all) shared activities and perhaps learning to do some new things together.

Caring, sensitive, with a good sense of humour. Independent, but always able to find time for that special someone. To have a sense of fairness. That health and fitness is important but not obsessively so. Pleasant meals in good company in atmospheric surroundings : sharing a glass of wine/coffee and sharing openly about things that matter - family, friends and future expectations.

Family always important and that any new partner I will always respect this and that any time with family is precious and is always protected.

Walking almost anywhere : but sea and mountains so inspiring, on a beach at sunset, or looking across the Tuscany roofs as the sun goes down. I like to travel and sometimes dream of snowy scenes in mountains or pine forests with silence all around.Yes I like both cold and heat. Yes I like to be active and keep as fit as I can - doing this with someone else is so much easier, but I will always do it anyway.

Always parting or ending the day as "friends" or more, never on a disagreement - I hope I can and will live up to all this!
