In His Own Words
About him
Easy-going with plenty of spare time to share and enjoy:
Sightseeing; folk, classical and other good music concerts; playing guitar; singing; songwriting; photography; serious and not-so-serious conversation; walking; occasional eating out; eating in; watching TV (anything but soaps!); drinking; having a laugh.
I'm definitely not the sporty type, but try to stay healthy.
Favourite city - Prague
Favourite pastime - photography (I used to teach it)
Favourite sport - cricket
Favourite meal - one I've cooked myself
Favourite film - too many to choose from
Favourite piece of music - Beethoven violin concerto in D
Favourite work of art - The Fighting Temerare (cliché I know)
Favourite person - all applications considered!
I like to take my time to get to know people before I can relax in their company, but once I'm a friend, I'm your friend for life. I'm pretty hard to upset and fairly easy to please.
About his ideal match
I'm looking for someone to share common interests, or to develop new interests with. Intelligence and personality are more important than looks to me. Someone looking for a simple but sophisticated lifestyle - for example seeking out lesser-known places of interest rather than jetting off to Ibiza or the like. Someone that likes a good bottle of wine rather than a huge quantity of lager, but real ale drinker would be nice!
