Hapless idiot bouncing from one disaster to the next. I've got no real inspiration to write anything here, and the idea of asking one of my friends to describe me just elicits the response "you're a twat", so I'm afraid you're either going to have to wait until I can come up with the goods to sell myself in a amazingly witty and suave manner here, or just go right ahead, dive in and ask me something.I notice I've stuck up pictures of myself solely in orange. Don't worry, this is purely coincidental as that's all I had to hand where I wasn't looking like a startled dugong - I stress my wardrobe is not chock-full of "earth tones". Ah, there you go, I've stuck up a picture of me at a wedding just for you, proving that I can scrub up ok when I decide to.You? Well, I don't have a preconceived idea of the "perfect match", but if you're the sort of person who switches to Eastenders because you don't want to watch the news, we're unlikely to get on for very long. You need to have a bit of get-up-and-go and be interested in the world around you and how it works. I'm quite happy to spend lazy Sundays with someone, I just don't want to spend them with a lazy thinker.Hobbies? Erm, briefly, cycling, karate, badminton, hard sci-fi, gigs, watching a smile light up my daughter's face (see that, bit of a soft spot there, yeah?). It goes without saying she's my priority, but she's a rather excellent little girl if I say so myself. She's got me sussed already - I'm the one in the playground going "Look at me! Look at me!" while she looks on in consternation and says "Don't be silly Daddy".-Update-Hmmm, ok, here's some detail which may well pigeonhole me or possibly give you the wrong impression, but bollocks to it:I'm a bit of an acquired taste; I try to keep the obnoxious misanthropist from coming to the surface too often, but sometimes I just can't help myself. Point me in the direction of a TV blurting 'reality' at me and I'll soon be frothing at the chops. Having said that, people who interest me and have unique characteristics tend to end up friends for life.My sense of humour is fairly close to the knuckle -I read voraciously -****(ignoring the bit where he went totally loopy though).I'm pretty technical and fairly practical with it too. This may make me a fearsome bore on a wide range of subjects, but very useful when your computer or car doesn't work (or more commonly, my own).I like to balance it out by being reasonably active -- it's too slow and stultifying.I've done the almost obligatory spend-a-year-travelling-round-the-world-trip. Maybe we can compare notes. Or I can bore you with tales. Or not.Music? Couldn't live without it, and I've got a wide range of tastes from Alphaville to Yello, though if I'm going to throw some bad shapes on the dancefloor it's probably going to be to some dirty filthy electro house or breakbeat - Deadmau5, Hybrid, Way Out West, for ***'n'B and garage are a massive no-no, and I remain to be convinced about dubstep... Preferably one where I emerge with my dignity and most of my remaining limbs intact.

My personality: I am warm, open-hearted, friendly, honest, loving, tactile, sensitive (but not over- Even though deep down I am very serious about life and living well, I try not to take myself too seriously, have learnt to laugh at myself and to be open about mistakes I have made and my own failings. I enjoy good company, particularly eating together, having deep & intimate conversation but also a lot of laughs, going to pubs/cafes with soul, walks in nature, enjoying great music with others, but equally I like and need a fair bit of time alone in order to feel balanced in my psyche. I am lucky that my job (Tai Chi/martial arts teacher) is also my main hobby. Personally, I would like to form meaningful relationships and partnerships with others that help me to learn from them, to share my knowledge and gifts, to become a better person and more fulfilled. Of course I would dearly love to find a life partner who I can share as much as possible of my life with and grow with. By the way, I am a good cook and particularly love to cook for others ;) I also love people who can really think for themselves and show some intellectual curiosity - if you're not curious in this way we may not have much to talk about! Also I am a big fan of straight talking people who are really committed to being honest with themselves and with other people. From experience, I know this is not easy and I still have a lot work to do myself! I love any music with feeling, spontaneity and care in its creation.- his playing moves me the most and having been a trumpeter myself I can really identify with it.I realise that I am quite an unusual person in terms of my lifestyle. My quiet, simple life may seem dull and boring from the outside, but I have a rich inner life and I cannot adequately describe the joy that it brings. I just wish I had more like-minded people around me to share with. I am not a materialist and don't have much money because that is not a driving force in my life. I am driven to discover and follow the purpose of my life, to not get distracted by all the bullsh*t that our world puts in the way and focus on pursuing my passions and convictions no matter what people think of me or how my life is viewed by 'society'. And to be happy, of course - I am getting there :) Beyond that, all you really need to know is that I am actually an ordinary, down-to-earth, level-headed, genuine, honest and humorous person who is not living with his head in the clouds or buried deep in the sand. Although most people would view me as 'alternative', one thing I am not is a fluffy new-ager! Meeting in a quiet cafe or bar (somewhere with character and uniqueness), going for a walk, sharing our passions and aspirations... and hopefully some really good laughs and a nice hug at the end!
