In His Own Words
About him
Because I'm a really, really nice guy! If you like that sort of thing.
I'm kind, and genuine, and romantic and have been single for about 4 years now. I'm a pretty good cook although a little out of practice in cooking for more than 1.
I have my own computer repair company which I started after being made redundant by a big nasty IT company who I won't name here (Hewlett Packard......)
BTW, I don't really speak Urdu but did have a 12" single of Fun Boy 3 "Our Lips are Sealed" which was in Urdu (Urdish?). My danish is rusty as well, I picked up some when I lived in Copenhagen a few years ago. Then I moved to Paris and now I'm near Reading so I must have upset someone somewhere. Life isn't fair.
That's about all I can think of for now. If you want to know more, just ask :-). Don't be shy.
Update.
Now that Encounters & I have finally settled on what constitutes a "Head & Shoulders" photo and lawyers have been stood down, if you wish you can see what I almost look like.
I quit smoking after 30 years about 2 years ago but only with the help of electronic cigs (ecigs). So, I don't smoke but I do use nicotine and am not going to try to quit. They are very "second hand" friendly though.
You also get to see what I looked like 20 odd years ago!!!! Whoooo!!
About his ideal match
I hate this bit. I would hope you are attractive, probably a bit younger than me although that's not a showstopper. You must have a good sense of humour, which can include taking the mickey out of me. Once you get to know me of course!
I'm very slim so it would be best if you were slim as well.
It would be nice if you had a romantic streak and didn't mind being spoilt occasionally.
If you have red hair and green eyes, move to the head of the queue!
