In His Own Words
About him
I'm just dipping my toes in the water for now as I've had a few pants years and I am not entirely sure whether I am ready for this minefield yet. However, I can tell you that this science educated, affable, easy going, optimistic, ambivert fella loves the outdoors, whether it's a rugged coast, a wide sky or just at home in the garden. I'm not too bad at nature and landscape photography and I love escaping from the world now and again. To me there is nothing better than the warm pink faced glow of a walk in a howling gale and returning for some grand food, a crackling open fire and maybe a decent wine, a good pint or a wee dram. Saying that - I also love a night out at the theatre, catching some comedy, a good play or, yes, even a cracking musical (ooooo.... aren't I the modern metrosexual - not!). I'm also happy exploring cities, culture and indulging in the local cuisine (I will eat almost anything except avocado). I can talk to pretty much anyone as long as they speak English and love easy chatter, though I cannot dance and won't dance - so there! I live in rural Leicestershire and though my old house is in need of a bit of love and attention, it is warm and welcoming despite the whirlwind of devastation that a resident golden retriever and two daughters dump on me when they aren't at university. Don't worry, I'm not looking for someone to become my interior decorator or live in cleaner... I am perfectly capable and can look after myself - promise. I even know how to turn on an iron.
I don't take myself seriously at all. After the monosyllabic groan of the morning has dissipated, smiles and giggles with a degree of pragmatism maintain my sanity. I am convinced that my happiness comes from seeing those around me happy, if that makes any sense.
About his ideal match
Hmmmm... if either Kylie Minogue or Felicity Kendall from her Good Life days are around - I'm here! Yes - I admit that I do have a penchant for petite women, but it's not compulsory at all. To be frank, if you have eyes that smile and a smile that beams then I will probably be smitten and I might just want to hug you. My taste is naturally understated but with a smidgen of class too, someone who is an equal and a best friend first. If you happen to have an interest in the outdoors and nature then that would be a big box ticked and if you think that occasionally getting caught outside in the wind and rain is a giggle, well that's another tick. If you also have a slightly nerdy interest (though not train spotting please) then to me that just shows enthusiasm. And if you are the type who walks down a beach with your head down or someone who trawls a cliff face looking for fossils then you might be me in female form.
So if you happen to be a compulsive shopper, a mirror / bathroom hogger, a multiple TV soap addict, tattoo lover, facebook boaster, naff cheap holiday goer, or night club regular then please just smile politely and wave me by!
I'm not overly complicated, errr...I think, but I am naturally drawn to people of a similar outlook and background who like affectionate banter, gentle mickey take, and who maybe have a little twinkle in their eye that only we can share. Oh and if you happen to have a lovely kissable bum and an unhealthy interest in wearing lingerie too - then whahay ...you can probably see my smile from there. Or is that just the twinkle I just mentioned?
So if you are vaguely intrigued or tempted by my incoherent ramblings and not scared off by my ineptitude at self promotion then go on, just drop me a line. xxx
