In His Own Words
About him
A gentle blonde with his own teeth and miraculously, still quite a bit of hair. I look much younger than my years, though I’m not sure that's a good thing.
Things I enjoy: driving out on a sunny day with the roof down, a pub lunch, tinkering in the garden but that’s a major chore involving ladders and trees; spending time with my two adult sons who are my best friends; Performing at jam nights (I play Blues, Stones, Eagles, Clapton, Pink Floyd, Leonard Cohen etc.); Painting in oils/acrylics; photography; I like Cornwall too and it’s best kept secrets. I make electric guitars and it’s a challenge to create the best tone.
I love architecture, the National Trust and their gardens, train journeys and pondering the scenery and what was there before, the peace of an art gallery. I can be found walking my local beach at Cooden, even in the rain.
Spent my career in the city designing computer networks for Merchant Banks. I have a qualification in Psychology which is just an interest - understanding the psyche takes a bit more than piece of paper.
I like to think I am fun to be with - slightly off-the-wall sense of humour. I am kind, articulate, compassionate, sensitive, considerate, empathetic and have a traditional sense of ‘old school’ when it comes to being a gentleman.
About his ideal match
I’d like to meet an emotionally intelligent lady with warmth, curiosity, and a daft sense of humour. While travel and adventures have their place, I am up for quieter and more simple pleasures. An eccentric sparkle would be welcome. Whatever life still has to offer, I hope she’ll be up for some fun and intelligent conversation.
