In His Own Words
About him
How can one say "I'm confident, savvy, funny, well balanced and with boundless energy" without appearing too good to be true?
Love London, the smell of summer rain, country churches, baked beans on toast, William Boyd, good manners, passionate people, warm bread, saxophone, in pre- covid times arriving in a city for the first time, radio 4, sensuality, bookshops, Blackadder, my garden, laughing, coastal towns, Shakespeare, kissing, sunrise, Woody Allen, walking, Edinburgh Festival (fingers crossed for this year !), trains, self-deprecation, snow, cycle rides, smell of fresh cut grass, David Gilmour, marzipan, integrity and unsolicited kindness.
Less keen on pedantry, ennui, parking fines, foam pillows, out of town shopping centres, intolerance, most television, motor racing, overheated rooms, Piers Morgan, loud voices, closed minds, and the Daily Mail.
With my children now successfully piloting their own lives I am looking to take full advantage of my freedom but know that is always more fun shared with someone special.
About his ideal match
Someone who will make my tummy flip !!!! Though being more practical an ideal starting point would be warmth, intelligence and a sense of humour. An interest in the arts, the world around us and a social conscience would be pluses too. Also a woman who has come to understand, like me, that real happiness is rarely achieved through material gains.
