* Go to swanky gymnasiums

* Swimming and surfing

* Polo and horseback riding

* Deep-sea diving

* Target practice at the gun club, bird shooting works the arms

* Running

* A healthy amount of sex.

Where to find the eligibles

* Cuddy'z is a common after-work locale to knock back a few after a gruelling day of money-making - especially when watching live sporting events at Cuddy'z. It'll be easier to strike up a conversation if you know a little about the sport.

* Like rare exotic birds, they often turn up in Jamaica's cosiest hideaways.

* Lime Cay (for those who don't carry sand to the beach), guys with boats.

* Random bars like Rib Kage, the Verandah, the Deck, Medusa's, Christopher's Jazz Lounge, TGIFridays, Blue Beat in Montego Bay, The Jamaica German Society.

* Swanky all-inclusive parties like Frenchmen, Mad Circle's Osmosis, High Society's Special Delivery, Singles and other such events, are ideal places to meet the up-and-coming eligibles.

* In the grandstands at high-profile sporting events. They like to come out to see the Reggae Boyz and bachelors like ours usually flock the grandstands.

* Service club meetings such as Kiwanis, Rotary, Toastmasters, Optimists, Lions clubs. Some single ones might be there.

* Up On D'Roof at the end of every month.

* Lunch time in New Kingston.

* High-society weddings.

* Race/Go Kart meets at Dover, close to the airport or at Vernamfield, if you like the daredevil type, feign interest in motor sports.

* Cyber cafés like WhatsonJamaica, tapping into wireless Internet hot spots with their laptop's WIFI technology.

* Café's like Suzie's, topping up on their caffeine intake.

* High-profile churches like Church on the Rock, Stella Maris, and Sts. Peter and Paul.

* On the Red Stripe mound at Sabina Park.

* Master's programmes at UWI/UTech. Look for the eligibles with post-graduate education. Places like UCC.

* Caution: Do not go to race meets, they will spend all their money and time on their car and little on you.


Knut Borstad

Age: 37

Height: 6'

Profession: Professional commercial diver

Hobbies: Extreme sports, rock climbing, deep-sea diving, spelunking (caving).

What defines you?: I am a self-adopted Jamaican who plans on making this country my home. I am a very determined person, quality conscientious, and hate idlers. I count my blessing every day for being fortunate to live a fantastic life with new and old friends.

Favourite colour: Green.

Ideal woman: Confident, goal oriented, fun loving, and very caring, willing to stop and have a family. A risk-taker, enjoy sports and it would be good if she is six feet tall and speaks five languages.

Favourite female body part: The neck. When a woman pulls her hair up, you can see her elegantly-shaped neck and jaw line. That's a huge turn on for me.

How many children would you like to father?: Three. Sex does not matter once they are all healthy.

Ideal first date: To a discreet restaurant to see if there is any chemistry. And on the second date, to a sporting event to see if she is adventurous.

Do you have any pets?: No but I am a sucker for AmStaff (American Staffordshire Terrier), a breed of dog that resembles pit bull but is much friendlier and well-behaved.
