In His Own Words
About him
Have got to a point where a new direction in life opens up, and I want to alter the balance in favour of enjoying the here and now. I am kind, loving and loyal, a bit reserved but warm and sensitive when you get to know me. I am curious about everything under the sun and I'll be interested to learn all about you, what you've been up to and what new adventures we could go on together. It could be exploring Spain or Italy; walking up the steps to the Albert Hall or walking along a river bank to a pub for lunch.
I enjoy exhibitions, films, theatre, concerts, gardens, galleries and choral singing. I know my way round a kitchen and would love to have someone to spur me on to more adventurous cookery, Japanese or Mexican?
I was very sporty until I bust my anterior cruciate ligament of my knee playing squash in my twenties. That put paid to twisty aggressive sports but I can walk and cycle perfectly well and enjoy football vicariously through supporting Brighton and Hove Albion.
I have been a designer for most of my life and have the creativity and curiosity to learn something new every day. I think I have a lot to offer someone who's looking for love and enjoyment in life. Let's find out.
About his ideal match
I would like her to be open hearted, kind, generous, tactile, intelligent and articulate.
At home walking in the country or enjoying the cultural bright lights of the city.
Someone who can find happiness in the simplest of things, especially when shared. Young at heart, with optimism and vitality.
If you can see the funny side of things, and enjoy some of the same things that I do, let's get in touch. Like most social interactions we like to see who we are talking to, so if you don't show your photos I can't see you, and am unlikely to follow up. And if you are left of centre we will not make a good match.
