A day in the life of TV Director

I was hunted down by a veteran of on-line dating, MR TV DIRECTOR, as soon as I put my foot (naked one with blood-red toe nails) in the door of Guardian Soulmates portal:

Mr TV Director: Well, I certainly am taller than you. And I saw it on telly this weekend that really height is all a woman is looking for in a man - something to do with picking berries and fighting tigers - so surely worth a go...

His pictures were hidden and profile read: ' Tall, lovely male looking for someone dead sexy, who used to shoplift as teenager. Neither drippy nor dippy. Mod not hippy'. Intriguing, I thought.

Beautiful but Grumpy: Tall and a socialist.. you certainly tick all the boxes! Do you have a photo to top this ideal up? :-)

Mr TV Director: Oh, and I have so many other wonderful attributes too. (I'll let you know once I've had a think.) You can see me already, Maria dear. Just click on that thing that says private pics.

BBG: Why do you think its Maria and not Anna? Doesn't Anna go with teenage shoplifting more?

Mr TV Director: Does it? Do you think? Neither sound dippy or drippy. But, to me, Anna is the innocent side of you. And so it's Maria whom I address. Bad, bad Maria... Dan x

BBG: he, he. Have a really good day Dan- the-part-time-psychotherapist.. A/M

Mr TV Director: I'll try. And you too. I'm working but would love to be distracted. (private e-mail and mobile number added). Dan x

BBG: I'll see what I can do..

Ha, I thought, a real man! Sexy and intelligent. What a treat after a waterfall of mails like this one, from CHIRPYCHAPPY:

Please have a look at my profile and let me know what you think.
If you don't, well it will be another lonely night with a bottle of whisky and a packet of pork scratchings.
