In His Own Words
About him
Very down to earth and able to see the funny side of things and a proponent of the old fashioned gentlemanly values yet keeping abreast of the latest trends and events
Just completed a 10 week series of Ballroom refresher lessons at Danceworks Devon . May I have the next dance please ?
I like to think that I make the most of every day ,a mostly glass full person who looks and behaves as someone much younger according to my children. Is that a compliment?
I relish being in the great outdoors , walking on the nearby moors or by the sea or watching and participating in sports (a keen golfer) or working in my large garden I try to keep fit by attending a keep fit clas . I am happy with a quiet evening at home perhaps enhanced by an intimate meal , soft music and scented candles.I love an evening at the theatre or cinema or attending a musical gig.I volunteer at the local Heritage Centre.
I think it is important to keep abreast of world affairs and Ito try to learn something new each hence the aforementioned dancing lessons.
I like most forms of music and sing in a local choir and especially enjoy musical theatre.
I have been described as romantic and caring and I like to please and surprise .
It would be a bonus to find someone to travel with and explore pastures new at home and abroad
I believe that loyalty and kindness and an ability to listen well and to appreciate the other persons point of view are vital components of a relationship as are the ability to compromise and to see the funny side of things
About his ideal match
I am hoping to meet a caring and loyal partner , to see what happens !! Someone who enjoys ,travel and the outdoors and iwho takes pride in her appearance and fitness
If she is attractive and enjoys music and singing , dining in or out, reading ,the theatre, cinema and dancing ,so much the better. Someone very interested in travel and sport would be a real bonus.
I would love to find someone who takes joy from the simple things in life,
I t would be good if she has a sense of humour, is reliable, adaptable and enjoys all that life has to offer
