In His Own Words
About Him
I have depth, I understand the realities, I appreciate the desires, I know the needs and I have experienced the good and bad that a life well lived would encounter along the way. I have an innovative mind and an unusual approach to most situations - this could make for interesting discussions / if your mind is unfettered I would love that. I am also old fashioned in that I am a gentleman and believe that a Lady should be shown respect. I have never taken drugs or smoked or been intoxicated - the last one might worry you! I own a technology holding company. I enjoy technology, the ballet, good music which is usually played rather loudly when I am alone and singing when I am alone - the latter ("alone") being as a result of threats. I currently play in a couple of bands / percussionist, live theatre, reading, trout fishing in the mountains, a good bottle of wine with a friend - I am not someone you would call a "drinker" and pour more down the sink than down my throat.
I have many interests and have been a professional musician (clarinet and tenor sax), an actor, a mime artist (trained in London), worked in banking here and overseas, raced cars and currently I work full time in industrial design where I have international patents. Please - there is no ego here - this is not important, it is just stuff that l have done / still do.
I am living in the village of Greyton but this need not be cast in stone.
I go for walks, swim in the river, fish, water the garden, plant lots of trees and watch them grow, would love to walk hand in hand to the village for breakfast, read the paper and take time for living life.
I am looking to share my very being with a person who has depth, understanding, who is a responsible human being, who actually knows what it means when I say to her: "take my heart".
I have my dream home and l am grateful for my all, however thoughts of living on a yatch and sailing to interesting islands ... MMMMMM??
About His Ideal Match
I am looking to meet a lady who understands that the hours, days, years left to us are fleeting and they deserve to be lived to the full. This might be holding hands, going for a walk, sitting on the grass watching a bee at work, reading a good book / simply doing the things that bring pleasure or joy. There will be the hard knocks that life will deal but these also, we will share and overcome and together move on with the positive aspects of living. Finding a friend to love would be a good thing.
