In His Own Words
About him
I am a university teacher living near Caerphilly and consider myself Welsh though I was born in London and moved to Cardiff more than thirty years ago. I think (hope) my friends would say I'm generous, good-humoured, witty in the right company, sensitive to other people's moods, and a sympathetic listener. Music is absolutely central to my life (mainly classical and modern/contemporary); also reading (poetry, fiction, history, philosophy); cycling; singing (with a local choir); and writing (books and articles on a range of topics and a recent volume of poetry). I enjoy eating out once in a while but don't have what you'd call a sophisticated taste in food. I am extremely fit (cycle around 60 miles in an average week) and generally lead a very active life. My favourite kind of outing would be to a concert, opera, or literary event of some sort though I enjoy a good film or evening of pub conversation. Outlook on life: 'pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will' (Gramsci) just about describes it.
About his ideal match
This feels too much like what recruitment agencies call 'person-specification' but anyway here goes: keen on classical music (quite) important), politically aware, fairly well-read, physically fit, good sense of humour, keen (but not too keen) on travel, sensitive, kind, thoughtful, sociable but happy to spend evenings just talking and listening to music. An interest in cycling would be a nice bonus but not essential! But this sounds too much like a checklist please don't be put off - I get on well with most people and am not at all a demanding sort of person.
