In His Own Words
About him
I was the second senior partner in a very, very large and well known firm of City lawyers. I've just taken out a practicing certificate again with a view to practicing again. At the very least it has enabled me to have a brass plate outside my house
I've never quite forgotten the hectic pace of my professional life and to a degree it applies still to my present life.
I have a dry sense of humour
My " likes " are walking my dogs, gardening, the internet and watching TV
I dislike arrogance, bad language especially when ladies are present and rudeness
Also I don't like golf ( not enough patience ) and card games apart from Blackjack
I'm told that I'm the epitome of charm and charisma and a " real "Gentleman. I love the country, classical music and jazz, gardening and keeping fit
I now live in a rural village in Somerset right opposite the pub
I have two Border Collies, Chaplin aged 4 & Misty aged 3, a posh cat called Franklin who I've nicknamed " Nogood" and a Parrot called " Jack "who barks like a dog and calls mine by their names and is teaching me how to swear!
Last but not least Fencing is my favourite sport ( which I used to do before I moved to Somerset four years ago ) and rugby
About his ideal match
She should be attractive to me, outgoing, country loving, dog loving and interested in gardening. She should also like classical music,jazz and light pop and gardening.She should also like me as me and not for what I may or not have
She should also be able to argue amicably with me over silly, unimportant things
She should also appreciate that in a relationship each partner should be able to have his or her own space to a certain degree
I'm certainly not looking for a cook, cleaner etc
