In His Own Words
About him
I am absolutely hopeless at describing myself - this feels rather like a job interview!
I am, I hope, an intelligent, articulate, well-mannered chap with (of course!) a great sense of humour!
I have a great job - although the pay is not earth shattering - which enables me to live a modest but comfortable life. I am very fortunate to have great friends and family and not a bad social life but there is a critical element missing...
If I start another sentence with "I", I will send myself to the back of the class!
What do I enjoy? Music (surprised?), I do play a little bit but very out of practice. Literature... The clue to one of my favourite books is in my username! Art... probably a bit Pre-Raphaelite for some tastes? I do enjoy illustration but, once more, rather out of practice. Travel? Of course! I am passionate about history and love visiting places with historical significance - at home or abroad. I can cope with beaches but may soon sidle under an umbrella to read a book...
Having had a number of interesting careers, I now work with wildlife. A committed conservationist but a very active field sportsman...
I live alone surrounded by books, pictures and music. I am very happy with my own company and, not having had the best of luck in matters of the heart, am not a little nervous about all of this. Not exactly brilliant at technology, always disliked talking about myself hence the "fish out of water" headline... If you have read this far, I admire and thank you for your perseverance!
About his ideal match
Personality is absolutely the key... Intelligence, confidence in their own skin, humour (of course!), a love of life... A willingness to help someone step out of their comfort zone?
I was not fortunate enough to have had children but sometimes quite like them... obviously couldn't eat a whole one. I have had relationships where there were children and have coped!!
What am I attracted to? A little hint of rebelliousness? Individuality - absolutely! Find poise and elegance far more attractive than a designer label or a gold credit card (gosh, that even sounds shallow saying it!).
Would like to meet someone who enjoys putting on wellies for a walk through the woods but is equally happy to change into something delightful for a dinner party or restaurant... Critical qualities must include a sense of humour and an essential kindness - towards themselves and to the world around them. Dare I say "must like dogs"? I don't mind horses if that is a fair quid pro quo... Oh, final thing: was brought up to be respectful towards the fairer sex. Despite having to work in a very PC environment, if you don't like being treated as a lady we might have some issues!!
