Truebluechap, 78

Mother Italian. Two grown up kids. Starting again after 25 years prior to which spent three years in America. I like the outdoors, boot sales, flyfishing for Salmon and Seatrout in th hills, kippers and kedgeree, R4,Bryan Ferry, Pachelbel, etymology, anything historical including ancient buildings, traditional homes and archaeology and mustn't forget Backgammon--won cups in British Opens. Member of Friends of Friends of Friendless Churches, though not terribly religious, and enjoy pottering around their ancient graveyards, often now overgrown and natural wildlife havens. Impossible to worry in a graveyard. Captain of Boats at Oxford and Member of Stewards' at Henley so might suit lady who might enjoy wearing an actual dress now and again, not to mention hat, with a view to to swanning around with the cream of the country (plus me) and fearlessly attacking the odd lobster in the Seafoof Tent in the Summer. Spent Oxford Research Year at Harwell and offered chance to go on and do a D. Phil. - in Nuclear Physics, cripes - but decided a bit much and went in to the City and Banking.

I am an open and honest pro-family fiercely loyal reliable sort of chap.

Natural Red hair is a bit of a positive fet--- with me that no use trying to ignore. Not excited by Dyed hair unless to maintain original in face of Anno Domini.
