In His Own Words
About him
I am active,healthy,artistic,and a repressed romantic.
I enjoy walks, both short and long,preferably with plenty of points
of interest along the way. Also cycling,occasional swimming, but having stated this its not mandatory that you are like this, maybe a breath of fresh air that opens my eyes to other things is equally desirable.I love music, most genres, constantly have tunes, themes and chords running through my mind to accompany my daily routine. I can be casual or smart,depending on the occasion.Consider myself to have a subtle sense of humour,am very aware and see humour in many things.I intend this entry on the site to be my last attempt at finding that special person, but if unsuccessful may throw my teddy bear out of the pram and become a Trappist monk or a hermit !
About his ideal match
My ideal match would be someone first and foremost not consumed with consumerism and a constant need to keep running with the 'must haves' . The eyes always have it....searching for that elusive look, that glint ! Someone who loves being outdoors, simple things, simple pleasures.
Someone with an awareness of the essential good things in life.
Someone not afraid to get mud splattered whilst out and about,
but able to scrub up well when the occasion demands.
Sense of humour definitely required.
Someone essentially normal, kind ,loving, trustworthy, and ,dare I say , tactile.... this may be a big ask, but we can always live in hope, lets face it, without hope what else keeps us going !
