In His Own Words

About him

People who know me best and are sufficiently corruptible to take small bribes say I’m authentic, quirky, kind-hearted, honest, imaginative/creative, super-calm and gentle, but passionate, emotionally intelligent with an unhived mind, silly,/absurdist, resilient, playful, fun and funny, interesting and interesting, a one-off, someone who doesn’t follow the crowd, and full of l1fef0rce (but not as in I’ll run six ultra-marathons before breakfast – I wouldn’t climb over a full English breakfast to go to a gym).
Interests: Pub quizzes, ‘proper’ cricket, Scrabble, reading, watching old films, country/coastal drives (in search of coffee, cake and ice cream, second-hand stores/car boot sales and farm shops), UK countryside holidays, classic sci-fi (proper Dr Who, X Files and Star Trek Original), cooking cats (soz, forgot the comma there, that should be ‘cooking, cats’), a glass of something happy, the band Sparks, comedy sketch shows, The Chase quiz show, football in moderation and crazy golf.
I am half-Vulcan so I cannot lie (this puts me at a disadvantage to many men on here)..
This ‘quality’ made me a force as a truth-seeking journo in the 1990s and 2000s, but made me persona non grata thereafter as the Truth Industry became marginallised. Goodbye journalism, hello caring.
I have no desire to travel the world. I don’t do aeroplanes and Britain has so many incredible places I want to visit and re-visit.
And if you’re looking for an ape rather than someone tactile, gentle, loving and affectionate, good luck with your search elsewhere on this site. I’m more Paul Merton than Paul Newman.

About his ideal match

She should be fun, funny, interesting and interested; happy in her own skin and not sweat the small stuff … life’s too short. Sharing an absurdist/silly sense of humour will help, as will having more than two brain cells to rub together. I’d love to share watching old films (I love the Talking Pictures channel), visiting farm shops and going for countryside/coastal drives again. I’ve tried it myself and it isn’t half as much fun!
For a bloke who lives in Yorkshire (I’m not originally from Yorkshire – I was born in London, have lived all over England and am now newish to Beverley)*, I am very comfortable talking about my emotions – and yours! – as you’d expect from someone who has studied counselling to degree level.
A love of cuddling, kissing and holding hands once you’ve got to know someone is very important too.
I have a great, uncompromised immune system and for the longevity of any relationship it would be fab if you did too.
Trust is a HUGE turn-on for me … and the ‘successful applicant’ (!) will understand this. Trust, together with honesty, communication, laughter and connection are the cornerstones of making any relationship work. Oh, and you don’t take yourself TOO seriously, prefer cats to dogs and have a love of British countryside/holidays.
* After a wonderful adult life down south, living 10 lives and lucky enough to tick everything off my bucket list before I moved to Yorkshire, bar one, I‘m very content. So The Lakes, Scotland, The Peaks, Exmoor and Cornwall have greater appeal than more exotic climes.
