In His Own Words
About him
I guess those who know me might say I had firm opinions but will listen to others and am prepared to compromise. That I was always honest, with a "live and let live" attitude -- oh, the gift to give us to see ourselves as others see us!
As for "likes", well music - broad taste (Classical to Jazz to Rock and everything in between). reading; history, art; crafts; museums; film drama; countryside drives; castles & country houses; travel. As for dislikes: any form of cruelty or racial / religious hatred and social injustice.
For hobbies and interests, I paint and write a bit, and have a love of chess and other board games. I used to play badminton, cycle long distances and take my dog on long walks, but am not quite so active nowadays..... also my pet is not in his youth any more. I would like to learn to speak Spanish.
I can relax with a good book, or good company, or watch an interesting film with a mug of strong coffee (bit of a caffeine addict). A tendency to burn the candle at both ends.
My outlook on life --- I take it as it comes, and try not to complain over any difficulties, and to treat everyone as equals.
About his ideal match
Someone who would share most of the same interests as myself, or/and share her own interests with me.... I'm a good listener. It would also be convenient if she had wheels, so that I wouldn't have to do all the driving.
I am looking for someone who has wide interests, who is reasonably intelligent, and who is sensitive and honest, and does not hide her feelings.
A deal breaker??? If she were into motor racing, late night discos or mountaineering ?!
