Thank you for your consideration ! *<br><br>The stuff I actually wanted to say now !<br><br>P.S. The photo was taken by me April 2010 - I look like this !<br><br>My 12 nearly 13 yr old only Daughter does visit me - A welcome break and much fun usually !<br><br>Even though all the things I enjoy doing are not all here, if you enjoy doing an activity, I also might enjoy doing that activity too, please just ask me - we might end up wanting to do it together !<br><br>Of all the things I enjoy, one of my most favorite pastimes is walking, in the coun tryside - beach or interesting cities / villages<br><br>The coun tryside is a great place for fresh air and the chance to see some wonderful views ( A carpet of bluebells is truly amazing when struck by shafts of sunlight through leafy trees ) I find it great exercise and there is normally a pub to eat at somewhëre en route.<br><br>Sightseeing places off the beaten track like Stonehenge and Chanctbury / Cissbury Ring interest me and I like imagining what went on at these places in times gone by - Having walked AA Milne's POOH walk complete with 100 acre wood and throwing sticks off Pooh Bridge with my Sister and Daughter really made a special day.<br><br>Exhibitions I find are great places to look at things I don't see every day, such as the large oil paintings of Constablë etc at the Tate Modern and prints by people such as David Bailey at The National Photographic Gallery and I do enjoy exploring London, looking at Cartier Watches and diamond Rings with 6 Figure sums attached to them and also looking at the expensive clothes in Bond Street and traveling on the Tube and wondering whëre everyone is actually going at such a pace.<br><br>Romantic nights in, kissing and cuddling are a must and watching anything romantic,funny or otherwise is fine by me.<br><br>Motorcycles seem to crop up with alarming regularity for me, I love riding them and have just agreed to buy yet another one !<br><br>Home DIY is an area that I enjoy immensely and sprucing / fixing things up can actually be fun and can acually save some money for other things and normally ends up with the job done right.<br><br>My wish however is to meet a really special lady and share a life together, I want her to be honest and faithful and to really want a guy in her life to share both the ups and downs with and to really do things together and try to share each others interests and to encourage each other along and to adapt to each other.<br><br>Sharing intimate moments when we are alone and being able to laugh and communicate together is important too !<br><br>Long term would catergorise what I am genuinely looking for and really do want to meet the right woman, I miss loving and caring for someone special , I want my partner to be 100% of my life and my best friend and for us both to make each other feel special.<br><br>Again, Honesty, fairness, kindness and consideration are really that important to me, I am different in that I am very articulate and care greatly about other peoples feelings and try to put them first. I really do have a lot of love to give, I also think it is important to be patient with each other and accommodate our differences.<br><br>Musically speaking, I am just as at home with Hard Rock as Ballards and as long as its good, Ill listen to basically just about anything including reggae.<br><br>To finish : I have been both a soldier and an Oxford graduate previously, and am currently (6 ft 4 ) also I am fortunate enough to run a small fairly successful business, employing a few nice people including me !<br><br>Good luck in your search for someone special !
