In His Own Words
About him
[NOTE: no longer using this site - July 2023]
Well 'New Scientist' reader; that's a good start. I have also retained a keen interest in popular science, having completed my physics degree 20 years ago.
I took a day off work to watch the 'Transit of Venus' in June 2012, hence my user name.
I dig Robin Williams of ABC's 'Science Show' on Radio National and each year I go to the public lectures in physics at Melbourne University in July.
I have attended lectures given by Stephen Hawking and Richard Dawkins, and yes Brian Cox is on my list (but I haven't yet had the opportunity to catch him).
I'm currently reading a biography of Brian May, the Queen guitarist; mostly because Queen were such a great band, but also in part because he holds a PhD in Astrophysics.
That's the credentials bit I guess, to establish why I'm on here. I rarely come across people with a scientific background or interest, so it would be great to mix great wine with a conversation about some aspect of science.
I'm looking to start a new relationship and I have honestly got my house in order with regards to my ex and lovely young son.
I'd really like to hear from you :)
About his ideal match
I find the most attractive thing about someone is that they are interested in you. I have no 'ideals'; I'd prefer to meet a genuine person where there is a mutual 'click'. Quite open to the idea that that person could be like me, or quite the opposite - that's the fun of it all!
