In His Own Words
About him
I like to think of myself as a kind, bright man and an attentive listener. I try to make the most of the opportunites that come along, or seek things out if they don't. I believe that "good manners cost nothing". I am not a sportsman as such but will have a go at most things, e.g. canyoning, jogging, tennis and paragliding have all been tried. I would go to see virtually anything across the arts spectrum. Sure, I occasionally enjoy the finer things in life but many of the best things are free and I'm not motivated by money.
I hate deceit and arrogance, and will challenge them if need be. I love....fresh air, the stylishly fit-for-purpose, the compelling, the quirky, the understated and the modest. "Sometimes less is more" - how true. Translating those qualities into some examples: the views from Waterloo Bridge, especially at night; 'Una furtiva lagrima' from L'elisir d'amore....well, most Donizetti that I have heard actually (but I'm no opera expert and do not play a musical instrument); long summer evenings; Turner's watercolours of Venice and elsewhere; the films Brief Encounter and many other more recent ones. Songs: Four Last ones by Richard Strauss, In My Life by The Beatles - melody yes, but the lyrics are spot on - and lots of others from The Jam's Town Called Malice to AF's Say a Little Prayer, to Dido's White Flag. Not forgetting a lot of Pink Martini's output.
I'll leave you to decide which categories all of the above fall into! I could do with a more recent photo as the B&W one is quite old, but the colour photo is lockdown vintage.
About his ideal match
I do not want to be too prescriptive about this one. A kind, compassionate woman roughly fitting the criteria listed in this profile. Being on this site I will presume an interest in music but there may be other interests which we already - or could - share. There is bound to be some difference of opinion too; reference my own description, I will do my best to listen !
Someone who looks after herself, has a zest for life....and an ability to smile, particularly when things are down, would be great. A twinkle in the eye, you know? Long hair a bonus - you may have enough for both of us !
