In His Own Words
About him
Young at heart, kind, gentle & fun loving English gentleman. Fairly fit and reasonably slim with all original parts and faculties (less one gall bladder) but not as agile as I used to be. I'm told I have nice hands but I have to rely on words and maturity rather than youthful prowess to achieve results these days!
Trying to adjust to retirement. I have run my own business following a varied career with major organisations and travelled the globe - there's many a tale to tell there!.
I play golf badly, enjoy visiting old buildings, walks in the country, driving, visiting art galleries/museums, going to the theatre and concerts etc. I love a good banter, teasing and flirting. Please note that I am still married and will explain that if we meet. However, if that is a "no - no", please walk on by - I will understand.
I am a reasonable cook and enjoy nice meals out. I am a good walker and enjoy dancing but am equally happy curled up on the hearth with a beautiful lady & a nice red wine.
Let's get together for a face to face chat over lunch. It's the best way to get to know each other.
Such a beautiful objective stimulates my desires to breaking point and would give me courage if I knew the feelings were reciprocated.
About his ideal match
Mature English gentleman seeks laughter, excitement and joie de vivre without unduly upsetting an otherwise busy but somewhat mundane life. A slim elegant lady who prefers action to words and dresses to please like a lady whatever the circumstances. Perhaps someone to help fulfil the wilder side of my interests or just enjoy a nice meal, a walk in the country, visiting new places etc.
