In His Own Words
About him
Life-long Londoner seeking a companion and a friend and hopefully more, to share & enjoy the delights of this wonderful city: live music, cinema, theatre, food & wine, galleries, walks in London & out of town, the list goes on. Perhaps a travelling partner.
Recent “cultural” activities ....
Cinema: Anatomy of a Fall, The Holdovers, American Fiction, Perfect Days, Poor Things, The Zone of Interest, The Taste of Things, Monsters, There’s Still Tomorrow.
Gigs: Cara Dillon, Avishai Cohen (the trumpeter), Teddy Thompson, Gabriels, LSO/Antonio Pappano/Alison Balsom.
Exhibitions: Sugimoto’s photography (Hayward), Frans Hals (National Gallery), Holbein’s Women (Dulwich), Impressionists on Paper (RA), Entangled Pasts (RA), Expressionists (Tate M), Burtynsky (Saatchi Gallery).
Theatre: The Merchant of Venice 1936, Clyde’s (at the Donmar), Dear England, The Motive and The Cue (top top acting from Mark Gatliss), The Picture of Dorian Grey, Barber of Seville at Wilton’s Music Hall, Red Pitch.
Do any of these connect with you?
Currently listening to contemporary jazz at the calmer end of the spectrum & country music. Eclectic tastes, eh! There’s nothing like music to soothe the soul.
I am curious, love conversation. We live in a divisive world and I’m happy to listen to others with various views. Dialogue is vital. The cancel culture is poisonous. I listen to podcasts more than reading newspapers.
Always looking for glimpses of joy in these troubled times (important!) and would like to share that exploration with a partner.
i find lengthy exchanges of messages here unhelpful. Have to speak - the dialogue is better and clearer - and soon meet up if we want to get to know each other a little more.
Do please message me if any of this resonates with you.
About his ideal match
You’ll be curious about life - with an interest in the world around us (in the UK & globally), a love of creative endeavours (both in the arts - music, cinema & theatre - and the design world).
Wide-ranging conversation essential. You’ll be someone who enjoys interesting conversations about all sorts of things with some independent thoughts and ideas.
We’ll have overlapping interests to share, also separate interests which may or may not appeal to each other.
And hopefully some chemistry. I’ve not yet found the magic formula. Still looking. Maybe you’ll help me find that.
