More about John: "To paraphrase and expand on David Lipsky; Life's greatest lesson is: True Love and Enthusiasm are the world's rarest quantities.Love is the achievement that supercedes all others. Love generously and without guilt. Be grateful for loving anything."
Eclectic, loves sport motorcycling, music, animals, intense, emotional, romantic, sentimental, funny, weird, sarcastic, very dry, bizarre, surreal, opinionated, cynical, funny, clever, artsy, emotional and sensitive and no problem being vulnerable. Proud that I cry at movies. Happy and sad. Love conservation and debate, HATE arguing. LOVE animals. They might see me as a "hard man" in the British Isles - but of course with a gooey interior.".
