In His Own Words
About him
One of my main interests is music, particularly live music. I much prefer small venues than stadiums or arenas but I'd be happy to venture to one of those for the right band.
A second love is cooking. I enjoy the whole process - from chopping onions and mixing ingredients to finally sliding something in the oven. I put it down to the fact that my parents never let me have a chemistry set when I was younger. It is a great sadness to me that after years of trying I am still unable to chop onions as quickly as a TV chef. I often find myself in tears over it - although I have yet to ascertain whether the tears are a result of the sadness or the onions. The novelty of cooking for one soon wears off so a willing partner to share meals with would be wonderful.
In my younger days there was a song called ‘The Whole Wide World’ by Wreckless Eric. The opening lines were ...
“When I was a young boy
Mamma would say to me
There’s only one girl in the world for you
But she probably lives in Tahiti”
I’m rather hoping there might be someone a little closer.
About his ideal match
I'm looking for a kindred spirit to enjoy the simple things of life with - and some of the complicated things too. As is often said in profiles, it's difficult to put in writing what you are looking for - someone to feel close to physically and mentally - you just know when you find it. It's all down to the chemistry when you meet.
