In His Own Words
About him
I am very sociable and enjoy stimulating company. Basically an optimist who enjoys the small things in life. Ambitious to realise the creative side of myself. I am fit and active. I go swimming, enjoy walking, foreign travel, love classical music, a film buff, enjoying reading novels and poetry, drinking coffee and chatting, interested in politics and what makes people tick. Generous, affable and have a strong sense of humour. I am an ex-librarian now a published writer, poet and critic online for film reviews and books. It would be great to share a Proms concert or film at the BFI Southbank. Equally taking the train out to the Chilterns for a good walk. Not interested in watching sport but enjoy my thrice a week swimming. I keep in touch with my family. And enjoy being both on my own (writing) and socialising. I think I have a reasonably balanced personality.
About his ideal match
Appreciate someone who is sensitive to the arts - especially music, film and literature. Easy going and enjoys being in the moment. Sharing swimming, walking, traveling and maybe likes cooking (as I do to when I have the time), concerts, exchanging ideas and feelings. Is warm, open, patient and keeps enthusiastic about the world. Young at heart! Seeking companionship that may lead to an intimate relationship. See how it goes. I value humour, integrity and honesty. Non smoker prefered. But don't mind someone who has a pet dog or cat. To be independent, warm and responsive to the charm of being alive!
What His Friends Say
LOUISE said...
Alan is great company. Intelligent, respectful and highly knowledgeable about the arts ( he is a very fine poet) he is also fun!
We were romantically involved some years ago but have remained very good friends- in fact I was around at his yesterday evening where we enjoyed a delicious meal followed by a lovely black and white James Stewart film on his big projector screen. What could be better? I recommend him highly.
