In His Own Words
About him
My GP says I have the BP of a 58 year old and hopefully he knows what he's talking about!
However my blood is not red, it's Welsh and therefore I love music; Classical, Choral, Jazz, World and Folk and Leonard Cohen ! I have a hobby job broadcasting music on radio.
My sporting passion (other than Rugby and Cricket ) is rowing which keeps body slim, trim and the mind acutely active. I teach schoolboys how to row and tutor immigrants to speak and understand the peculiarities of the English language.I snow-ski whenever possible and play golf as little as possible otherwise I've dabbled in many other sports on land and sea. My motto is "try anything once". I can resist everything except temptation .
I try to be courteous, polite, caring, attentive, warm, supportive and loyal to those close to me. I'm tactile but have the ability to let the silence do the talking. A glance often speaks volumes.
About his ideal match
This is the superficial and contrived bit. What is it that enables you to make eye contact and feel a tingle in the fingers or butterflies in the stomach?
Superficially then: Slim, Sassy and Brainy
Typically male. It seems I'm looking for Superwoman; a combination of Mother Teresa, Meryl Streep and Juliette Binoche but there again, I did say this section is somewhat contrived and superficial.
We'll know when we meet.
