In His Own Words
About him
Rather than typing witty remarks in white boxes,I prefer hills, castles, mountains, nature,theatre. I have been known to wander around the Edinburgh Festival looking suspiciously curious. We recently made a film about a war poet so I guess that puts me in the category of "arty," hence choosing this place to type my patter rather than Find Me a One Night Stand Tonight dotcom
Daylight hours are dedicated to lecturing at a university, but can listen as well as ramble on incessantly about stuff. Pretty busy but yes it would be nice to share some time with that special person.
Somebody on here said I was "witty." I might take that with a pinch of salt. I just find the process of writing an essay about myself on a dating site difficult, so please forgive any world weariness to my er prose. I am here because I don't want to be here if you get my drift.
Do contact me if you like the idea of being in the company of someone who is often viewed by others as (and I quote) "a nice guy. " Nice" doesn't always mean successful on dating sites sadly, but as compliments go, I will take it. I also like travel, photography, good food and have a dog.
It's all an adventure and I would love someone to share that adventure.
I do like football, cricket and lifelong member of my local rugby club which means I enjoy the occasional pint and screaming unqualified coaching commands at the pitches and TV screens of his parish.
Thank you for getting to the end which I hope wasn't too traumatic and look forward to hearing from you.
About his ideal match
You should like theatre, arts, music, staying fit, travel, bizarre journeys to obscure places of historic or natural interest and be game for a laugh.
I just like to be surprised. Not in an obvious way. I mean empathy is a big thing in a relationship. I don't want to be "someone you used to know" (to quote Gotye). I'd rather you be someone I want to know. I am sure you feel the same.
