In His Own Words
About him
I enjoy the arts, live music, eating out, keeping fit and, now and again, going to drag racing and strongman competitions.
You'll find me to be a respectful, honest and caring, old school, romantic, but with a mindset firmly anchored in the 21st century.
By profession, I'm an Electronic Design Engineer, so I like to keep my brain sharp and learn new things all the time as I've done throughout my 50 year career.
Fun fact: 12 years ago at the age of 60, I travelled to Spain to learn skydiving.
OK, so I came back with a lot of stainless steel in my leg :-) but honestly, it was a fabulous experience that I've never regretted.
Life is too short, to not live your dreams.
About his ideal match

What His Friends Say
Luna said...
Mark is one of the most remarkable people you will meet. He is kind, thoughtful, attentive and loyal, and always thinks of others in the most touching and surprising ways. He is also incredibly smart and has an amazing, encyclopaedic brain full of interesting perspectives and knowledge. But he is far from boring or geeky. He has a wide range of skills and interests, from rock music to drag racing, and is always up for exciting experiences and a dose of adrenalin. He is also an amazing cook, and will serve up the best curry you ever tasted. He's fun to be with, full of wisdom and just an all-round awesome guy. Everybody could do with a bit of Mark in their lives.
