In His Own Words
About him
I am a retired telecom/radio engineer. I've 4 grown up children. I have been teaching and coaching swimming since I retired. Hobbies include walking, cycling and swimming, although not as much as in the past. I'd like to travel more, it's not much fun on my own! I'm honest and reliable and like to achieve perfection in what I do, but usually settle for less, I'm quite competitive but I also like to be relaxed and laid back and watch the world go by.
About his ideal match
Someone with similar interests and of a similar age or a little younger. I would like to meet someone caring and honest and reliable, with whom I can share life's pleasures and tribulations. Also someone who doesn't live miles away and definitely a non smoker.
