In His Own Words
About him
At this age, with the wisdom of the past and a continuous need to grow, that sort of sets the stage for the kind of woman that I would be best suited to. I work in construction, old buildings and love them and all of the challenges that they bring. Backalong when I set up my company, I had drive, ambition and set out to avoid all of the mistakes that I made and continue to grow on that bedrock.
On the leisure side of life, rugby and skiing have led the way with some sailing, diving, coaching kids and all of the rewards that it brings. I am a rubbish cook, but I try.
I dislike politics even though I immerse myself in the geopolitical consternation and constructs of our time.
I like reading and researching crazy stuff such as revisionist modern history, alternative energy and the medium, the alchemy of banking but also more mundane subjects such as the building of the Cathedrals and the lay lines of ancient temples, not bad for a carpenter!
However, at the front, middle and rear, I am ready to find and commit to a compatible woman and see where it goes.
I have grown up loving antiques, antique textiles and our past in material form. I love auctions. I can immerse myself in music, especially driving, with the volume up.
I do not watch TV, I do use Netflix and like reading, even though I am slow, it took me five goes to get a GCSE in English! (determination to get a military commission)
About his ideal match
Like many people, I would like to find a companion, a woman to share everything with going forward, and share her life and her needs. The nice things kind of speak for themselves really, walks, sport, music, travel and cooking, but a run in the rain and a warm shower afterwards, read a book together, an ambitious game of monopoly and plant some veg and flowers can fill out amongst the bigger things.
I am a non mainstream thinker and to that end perhaps I will be suited to similar although that is not essential as generally speaking I know when and where to step out of the mainstream and step back in discretely. I would probably also be better suited to a woman involved in her work, someone who enjoys it. I have my own company and when on a project tend to immerse myself in this.
I avoided the injections and all of the coordinated package around them.
Its a bit forward but a romantic woman who takes care of herself will be the icing on the cake.
