About fahrenheit451

fahrenheit451 is single and is seeking females for friendship or a serious relationship.

Kind, affectionate, intelligent and polite, looking for like type. Not interested in mind-games and loveless users.

A couple of things I’d like to say straight out – I’m poor, earning no more than a living wage, I'm a technician in a factory testing petrol dispensers; I'm also a competent computer programmer though not currently as a profession. I don't have a car or drive for that matter, I ride a push-bike. If you’re looking for a sugar daddy you’ve got the wrong guy.

I’m a solitary type, not the typical bloke who pals around with mates.

I spend most of my time writing computer software, researching scientific stuff, and trying to do gardening. I have a piano and a few guitars but I've never had the time to learn to play them; I have tried though.

I'm intelligent and logically minded but not a "square". I'm philosophical and would consider myself "spiritual". I've never been one for making much effort in meeting women, in my youth I was quite a good-looker so effort wasn’t required. A little older now and the wrinkles and grey hair are taking over - but I don't mind.

Ideally, I’m looking for a spiritually minded, artistic, quirky, well-mannered type of girl.

My home is likewise – not your standard fit-out. Everything is old, vintage or antique. I can trace my family history back over 200 years and I’m the curator of all that has passed down the generations. I have very few possessions which have been bought new. It’s either second hand, pulled out a bin, or built by my own hands or my forefathers/foremothers. I’m very skilled, inventive and practical.

I'm not a heavy socialiser and I never go to clubs, rarely drink at all actually; I may on rare occasion go to a quiet pub with a friend for one or two pints but take forever to drink a pint.

I'm quite chatty at times and rattle on about strange philosophical stuff, but for the most time I’m quite and recluse. Football is completely alien to me, as is celebrity worship. I don't watch TV, don't even have a TV.

Basically if your profile is limited to saying "looking for someone who makes me laugh" then pass me by. I have a sense of humour but experience has taught me that that statement invariably equates to "looking for an idiot for a doomed relationship". Not interested in an Love Island fanatic in a football scarf. Someone who has their own mind is what I'm looking for.

A final point: "The Eyes are the Window to the Sole" - If I can't see your eyes clearly then I'm not likely to respond to your message.

That's about it really.

What are your favourite leisure activities?

I enjoy cycling around the countryside but I also fiddle around with any subject where I can apply my brain to.

Norway, Sweden, France

Trust and tolerance to diversity.

What makes you laugh?

I'm not known to laugh much but I do find Monty Python and Frazier (A Sit-Com) hillarious.

A wide range from Hawkwind and Led Zeplin to Gorrilaz and Faithless. Lots of 70's and 80's stuff but not the "Canned Pop" that Waterman churned out.

Cycling from Dundee to Fort William and assending Ben Nevis.

Learning to play my piano.
