I've had some success in the past from online dating (actually had a ..shock horror...real relationship!), single again, friends all coupled up so here we are!

I'm a hardworking professional guy, loves to laugh , seeks similar etc... but I guess you already knew that?

I love music, live gigs, festivals etc....Been to the last two Glastonbury festivals! In terms of musical tastes? Basically almost anything that involves live instruments , jazz, blues,rock, indie etc...Loving Kings of Leon, Fleetfoxes,Betaband, The Coral, Belle and Sebastian,La Roux, Animal Collective,MGMT, Vampire Weekend,Hot Chip,as well as loads of beardy Jazz types,Miles, Buena Vista Social Club etc...

I lived in Japan for a year which has fuelled an obsession with all things Japanese, love sushi,tempura, takoyaki (but also love a good Indian!)

What am I looking for, I hear you ask?
Like most people on here I'd love for a tall dark stranger to sweep me off my feet but failing that, a leggy blonde would do! haha I don't have a type but good manners,quick wit and flirty humour,nice eyes are definate starters. I love accents so if you have one, I'd love to hear it!...oh, and someone who absolutely MUST be prepared to lie about where we met!haha ...no text speak please! I don't have any children and I've never been married/divorced so I'm ideally looking for someone who's similarly baggage free.

I'm led to believe that I'm a typical Aries, i.e. very contradictory ,,, thoughtful but spontaneous, cerebral/passionate etc..., fire sign and all that . I've also been told that my eyes are my best feature so I'm not sure what that says about the rest of me! Oh, and I had to choose "black" as my hair colour although it's now what is euphamistically called "salt and pepper"....just think George Clooney's ugly brother!

god this is sounding rubbish as I'm reading this back to myself,,, will return and work on this

make me an offer I can't refuse!
