In His Own Words
About him
So, are you sitting on the train on the way to work staring out of the window into the gloom and wondering what life is all about. Desperately hoping Mr. Darcy will come and sit next to you and crack open a bottle of Bollinger Grand Annee ? Hey, get real, there’s only a one in four chance of that happening so how about me in the meantime ?
I’m happy, Iaid back, intelligent (know what osmosis is and what DNA stands for….that’ll do). Have travelled extensively both in Europe, Asia and further afield (ex Backpacker, but still have the backpack) always thinking of heading off somewhere. I’m baggage free (not sure what that means but notice everybody wants it so put it in), emotionally stable (unless I listen to Maria Callas or Shirley Bassey in which case I’m in floods of tears).
I can cook. Either ends up Michelin* or in the dog. About 50/50.
Always looking for new things to try, I’d love to learn to dance but don’t think I would be any good (I even get the Hokey Cokey wrong, I put the left leg in when everyone else is doing the right leg…chaos ensues ☹️)
.
From London originally but now live in Poole (long story). Return regularly though, can’t beat a walk around Hyde Park, a wander around a gallery wondering if I could have painted that Rothko myself. Love being near the sea and countryside walks.
I enjoy theatre, especially musicals (I know, I know, can’t help it), country pubs, a log fire, reading, hiking (just walked some of the Santiago De Compostela Camino…gasp !).
Have a Camper Van called Hugo that allows me to whizz off on spur of the moment adventures across Europe.
All photos within last 2 years….or is it 3….can’t remember, let’s call it 2.5
. Well that’s enough about me, time to go, there’s a lady that looks a lot like Brigitte Bardot coming down the aisle with a bottle of something in her hand.
About his ideal match
Someone warm and gentle, someone to cuddle up with on the sofa, someone to talk with about anything and everything, someone kissable, someone with a nice smile and lovely eyes, someone who likes to laugh, someone who wants to have fun and enjoys travelling, someone who likes piggy backs (giving not receiving)…..Oh and baggage free…well maybe just one bag.
