My interests are in the environment, wildlife, animal welfare, organic gardening, sustainable land use social justice, common law and individual rights, real democracy for which I have strong opinions. I have no religious, national, or political loyalties. As an idealist I have quite high standards and expectations. I am frugal, principled, controversial, unconventional, and a non conformist. My partner would need more patience than a saint and would need to share and understand some of my interests. I am though, reliable and honest. I dislike: formality, ceremony, ostentation, insincerity, showmanship, deception, secrecy & secret organisations, crowds, waiting, queues, cities, crowds, noise, small-talk, trivialities, meaningless communication, celebritism, complexities, stress, TV soaps, monarchy, wastefulness, extravagance, professional sports, cold weather, cruelty, advertisements, bureaucracy, violence, intensive farming practices, wearing ties, telephone call centres, aggression, road traffic, politicians, lawyers, greed, commercialism, dark chocolate, balut, most modern music.
I like: children and animals countryside and wildlife;
