I'm a warm hearted and thoughtful man who values honesty and integrity and am happiest with my family and friends. My hobbies are music, bush walks and reading. I love my kids but they are all on their way in life and scattered around the globe. It's about time for a little 'me time'. I love all sorts of music and play a bit of classical, jazz, blues, folk etc.

I will go for walks on the beach if absolutely neccessary and if prodded with a sharp stick will attempt to dance.

I suppose the thing people notice about me the most is that I'm well read. Most weeks I read at least one book and often two or three. My main interests are art -- all sorts but notably Aboriginal --, history, literature , poetry -- all countries, music, psychology, politics and so on and so forth...

And after spending most of my working life with women I can speak nearly fluent "womanese". As a consequence I have a lot of very close female friends who value my friendship -- as I do theirs -- and often get me to translate "husbandspeak" for them.
