(63) from Nottinghamshire
Confident, laidback with a dry sense of humour.
Prefer quieter pursuits these days.
Not looking for a 'partner' - more friends with similar interests.

My hobbies and interests
Cooking
Like to cook when the urge takes me - mostly Pasta and love a good Roast Chicken dinner with stuffing and roast potatoes !
Shopping
Love to go shopping with my girlfriends but get bored after half a day and want to do something else.
DIY
I can change a plug and do my own decorating (just) but thats about it. Would love to be able to do more - have you seen how much tradesmen charge ???
Housework
I like to keep the place tidy but not particularly houseproud. There are always so many other things to do that are more interesting !
Dining out
Love to eat out and like most types of food. Especially Italian which is my favourite. Not keen on Greek food or Thai - nothing too spicy. Although I do love Indian and Chinese food
Movies
Love going to the movies but usually go to the local independant cinema. Anything quirky and a bit different is good although loved all the Harry Pottter films so far.
Theatre
Do like the Theatre but dont go as often as I would like. The last time was to The History Boys - I do like Alan Bennett.
Music
Have a pretty eclectic taste in music, Katherine Jenkins to Michael Buble to Elbow and lots inbetween !
Gigs
Like to see live music and prefer smaller venues to the large arenas where the artist looks like an ant ! Saw Ry Cooder last summer who was fantastic. Have also enjoyed Santana, Stones, Eric Clapton , Jackson Browne over the years but would prefer someone less well known in a smaller venue now.
Pubs
Only quiet pubs where they have comfy seats and you can talk.
Clubbing
No No No No No !! Did that years ago.
Newspapers and magazines
Read the lot on Sundays - Mail, Telegraph , Times , i am not fussy.
Books
Love to read and have a huge 'To be Read' pile of books at the moment. From biographies, Popular fiction, classics , non fiction - as long as the subject is interesting i will read it.
TV
Can always find something to amuse me on Dave. Watch TV a fair amount but am usually doing something else as well. Have been known to have TV on with no sound, radio on and reading a book !
Watching sport
No - would rather watch paint dry.
Playing sport
Like to go to the gym about 3 times a week or I feel sluggish. I'm a demon on the rower.
Hobbies
Have an interest in Natural Therapies and have qualified in Swedish Massage, reflexlogy, Reiki and seated massage.
My hopes and dreams
In ten years I see myself
Happy - preferably with someone who loves me - simples. Still healthy and able to do the things I love. Apart from that have no set plan,
Who would I invite to a dinner party?
Stephen Fry
Bill Bailey
My Mum
My ideal date
One where I feel comfortable with the other person so could be anywhere.
A good film followed by a great meal and a cosy few hours chatting about anything and everything.
What would I never, ever give up?
Having a pet (cat or dog) - you get unconditional love (as long as you feed them)
If I had to give a speech on a subject I was passionate about ...
Probably most passionate about reading and how it can teach you so much and take you to another world for a while.
If I could visit anywhere in the world at any time in history
It would be good to see the pyramids in construction !
Experiencing the war years would be interesting and give me an insight into how it was for my parents. Especially my Dad who left Poland when it fell to travel to the UK where he joined up.
If I had a million pounds to give to charity
To split it between small local charities - and no particular type but would include animal, homeless , elderly and childrens charities.
My "and finally" section ...
Hopefully someone will want to find out for themselves.
