In His Own Words
About him
I have recently sold my business which involved importing Alpaca knitwear from South America and selling it all over the World. Its a fascinating life and is more important to me than the riches that Accountancy - my former profession- may provide.
I have been kidnapped and looked down the barrel of a gun and have fortunately survived - it makes me value the quality and know the fragility of life. I hope therefore there may be something we will be able to chat about! Not that event but the tremendous feeling of joy and laughter that surrounds my life as a result of surviving a life changing event. Perhaps I understand now the priorities of life a little better.
I have always played sport and in particular sports that involve a ball. An adventure holiday is preferable to a beach holiday but I would not be adverse to a week in some romantic spot somewhere preferably with an alluring lady by my side. My ideal annual hoidays would include one week skiing; one week in the Galapagos Islands, one week playing golf; one week at some spa taking off the excesses. (Oh and the other 47 weeks -well they seem to be holiday as I do enjoy my work)
Politics. Not a huge fan but I think it is necessary to know what is going on.
Finally, my travelling takes me to some very interesting places both in the UK and abroad. Very often I stay in some pretty good hotels and find myself happier talking to the people working in the hotel to some of self important guests.
Life is for living and there is lots of living to be done.
About his ideal match
Confident; adventurous; intelligent and educated who likes to laugh and sparkle; be proactive rather than reactive and probably laid back and happy to pack a bag for adventure at the drop of a hat. But above all dreams and hopes and creativity and lots and lots of love and laughter and belief
