I would describe myself as:
I'm an easy going happy guy with a good sense of humour, open-minded, generous and sincere. I'm quite active and I like getting out into the great outdoors, cycling a fair bit, clamber up the odd mountain, and frequently walk by the sea. I'm interested in cars, football and rugby and I keep an eye on other sports. I practice yoga regularly and take a keen interest in the philosophical side to life. Not afraid to express an opinion, I like to keep up with current affairs and environmental issues. I love an odd Guinness with friends, I'm a good listener, loyal and supportive with a kind heart and generous with my time.

My ideal partner would be:
I guess she's got to have a mind of her own, tolerant of others and somewhat independant but also able and happy to rely on a partner for support from time to time. Intelligent with a quietly confident personality and a good sense of humour would be nice as would a little vivaciousness. Above all she should meet what life brings with a sense of perspective and balance. Hopefully we would have some different interests so that we could introduce each other to new things. A spark of attraction is equally important too but I will give it time....

My ideal date would be:
I'll meet you for a drink, a tea, a walk, whatever suits. As regards ideal I guess any date that leads to another is ideal....
