In His Own Words
About Him
Old fashioned morals - dancing, good food & wine. Opening doors, standing when a lady walks in and disguising flatulation.
Religious but avoid Bible thumping fundamentalism. Enjoy stimulating conversation & confess to having a naughty side. Love the sea, the mountains & the bush. I know "the secret", but "what the bleep". We can all be subject to the laws of attraction.
A sporty Durbanite, crave the great feeling of being fit.
Currently road running is my sport. Support Sharks, Dolphins, KZNA. Have sailed & fished.
Had the privilege of the friendship of super people, young and not so - female and male - open-minded and bigotted - religious and atheistic. In short I have led an eclectic life in many places, with little regret.
Favourite book "Hold My Hand I'm Dying" by John Gordon-Davis. WHY did Stieg Larsson die? Of course I have read Robertson Davies.
My music: Beethoven, Verdi, Frank Sinatra, TOTO; U2, Barbra Streisand, Smokie, CS&N, Shania Twain, Buble, Travis, Snow Patrol, Puccini, Paul Carrack; Propaganda, David Gray, Live, Sarah Brightman, Cold Play, Jack Johnson, Andrea Bocelli, Josh Groban, Robbie Williams & Will Young. Mostly - The Eagles!
I enjoy cooking for friends after a day in the sun.
My favourite indulgence is discussing history & philosophy. Conspiracy is fascinating and can be fun talk.
Favourite sound - genuine laughter.
Least favourite - a child crying.
Favourite activity - healthy debate.
Least " " - quarreling.
Favourite movies - Somersby, The Mission & The Last Waltz.
" song - Mr Bojangles.
" city - Victoria, Canada.
Lived in London for 6 years and loved it, but home is Durban.
Lonely - NO, but in Paris for the first time I was struck by the thought - this is not a city for singles.
In the 70's I shared a friendship with a wilful Siamese with typically beautiful blue eyes.
I called him Julius, he called me in his own unique fabulous voice.
I still miss him.
About His Ideal Match
A lady - all of you are.
A simple soul.
Suzie from the jacket of "Hold My Hand I'M Dying". (Sorry, I am a soppy romantic).
Someone who makes it easy for me to be a gentleman!
Caring, but not clingy.
Sharing, but able to stand on her own.
Needs & gives space.
Unconsciously intelligent.
Sporty but not necessarily active. In good shape, but not an obsessive dieter. Dresses well with a tendency to the casual.
Likes good food (braai - Italian & French cuisine), red wine & good company.
A lover of music & appreciates art. Indulges my need to make a curry every so often.
Enjoys the outdoors, the beach, the mountains & the bush.
Tolerates a sporting companion.
It is great to exercise together!
Has read Jung, Fromm and Lao Tzu but not Socrates.
Tanned & lovely, but not "beautiful".
ROMANTIC!
A guy can dream can't he?
