In His Own Words
About him
A few years ago a friend of mine asked me to write a profile for him on MySingleFriend.com. I was happy to oblige, after all, it's easy and fun to pick out other peoples' star qualities and wax lyrical about them, in exactly the way that it isn't when you apply it to yourself. Anyway, he's getting married next year; I'm not going to invoice him for my 10%.
In the spirit of the MySingleFriend comparisons, here's a few more to help you narrow me down a bit:
I'm more...
Alfa Romeo than BMW
Dan Brown than J. K. Rowling
Douglas Adams than Iain M. Banks
Gig than Festival
John Oliver than Jimmy Carr
Panorama than 19 kids and counting
QI than Bargain Hunt
I'm at the point in my life where I want to have meaningful experiences, and I want to share those experiences with someone special. I want to go to amazing places, see and do amazing things, with an amazing person.
Profession: IT Consultant

What His Friends Say
Gareth said...
Martin is one of my closest friends. He is possibly the most eligible bachelor I've ever known, he is approachable and always goes out of his way for friends and family, he is extremely loyal and trust worthy. When you first meet Martin he is a little shy but once you get to know him you will end up having some great conversations and chatting the night away. After a beer or two and Martin lets his hair down he never ceases to surprise people, I've known Martin for years and one night when we were staying at a hotel, we came back after a night out and in the ground floor of the hotel was a rather nice (and expensive looking) grand piano, I am cringing when Martin approaches and sits down at the piano thinking the deposit on my room might not cover this and then when I realise he is going to try and play it after a few beers my dread gets worse and then he starts to play this piano like a pro, getting a round of applause from the other guests!
With ladies it's common to say "always the bridesmaid but never the bride" with Martin he has had the pleasure of being a best man three times and giving the speeches (all to different close friends) but he has never found love himself.
Martin has a background of working in IT and is always leading up an interesting project or two at work, but that is something you can ask him about yourself.
Martin is house proud having recently moved into his own home, but his passion has always been cars he has had a long list of lovely older motors with the pride of the collection being an older supercar that was amazing, and possibly the most surprising thing was his effectively trading that car for his house.
My endorsement of Martin is long overdue; he wrote some extremely kind words about myself on MSF and this is how I met my other half who I am marrying next year.
