OK What can I say about myself? I'm confident to a point, without being arrogant, I'm very empathic and considerate, I know my own worth. I work hard, I am very loyal to people I care about or think worthy of it.
I love my music (guitar based Rock/indie, but not exclusively) and my films, I'm practical and very good with my hands.
*cough* oh behave you.
I DON'T LIKE FOOTBALL!! ok I'll watch england in the world cup but generally not bothered by it.
I believe irony and sarcasm are the highest forms of wit, or to quote one great man, "intellect on the offensive".
I love going to portobello market on a saturday and spitalfields on a sunday and wandering round with a coffee taking in all the awesome looking people and the shiny things.
I am looking for 'the one' but this is missleading on here, I misstrust all this I am a SERIOUS member trash, and 'I am looking for only dating' malarky, If I can meet up with some fascinating people then my life can only be the richer for it. You can't prescribe how you are going to react to a person till you meet them, chemistry is vitally important and doesn't come across in emails. Chemistry dictates what will happen, If I am looking for Dating and I meet some one who is best friend material but I don't find them attractive, what am I going to do send them packing?
Life works with shades of grey rather than black and white certainties.
I guess if I were to describe my type she'd have bright red hair wear too much eyeliner and black rimmed glasses, by no means is this exclusive I believe there is beauty in most people, it just depends on how you are viewing them just so long as you are opinionated intelligent and looking for a guy to compliment your life rather than complete it!
Here follows a small whinge
To all you girls who start their profiles with "fed up with playas" or "all men are dogs", you may as well just type I am horribly negative and stamp 'damaged goods' on your fore head. C'moooooon people you are here to get a guy not repel them at the first hurdle. A little optimism does wonders for the complexion.
PS if you write in text speak, please don't. Why celebrate your ignorance by putting it out there on the web for everyone to see! have you no shame??
Yes I am, a grumpy old man but i revel in it with such glee! Fantastic!!

for a first date, I think the best way to get to know someone is the simplest, find a nice bar/pub and get to know you, because at the end of the day thats what this is all about,YOU AND ME, if you want, over priced bars, crystal, and limousines go find a hen night!! we can hit the theaters and the restaurants and the skydiving or what ever else you fancy next time!!
