In His Own Words
About him
I hope that friends would describe me as calm, sociable and kind. I'm well educated, solvent and generally calm-natured. I took all languages for A Levels and then never used them as I veered sideways into Accountancy. My restaurant menu French, Spanish, German and Italian are all still reasonable and if I discovered a time machine back to early Roman Empire days my Latin would allow me to describe the living habits of Saxon villagers! Useful!! I absolutely LOVE travelling overseas and, having lived in Singapore, the Far East holds a very special place in my travelling heart. Bali and Koh Samui are among my favourites. I'm looking for a low stress relationship. Discussion without shouting would be good. Am happy to explain why I'm wearing a skirt in one of the pics!! The beard is optional.
About his ideal match
I'm NOT looking for perfection. Size 10 or size 20 would be fine. Tall or short (maybe not too much less than 5' because I'm 6'2"). Blond, brunette, redhead....you choose. I have a predisposition towards straight hair but that's not a deal breaker. I like feisty, intelligent women but not angry women. A desire to explore the world, especially the Far East, would be an advantage. I am a good cook and I am not horrendously untidy. I know how to load the dishwasher, use an iron & I can hoover.
