In His Own Words

About him

Fit and active and someone who always has a smile. Interested in people showing empathy and genuine concern for others, and a good listener. I enjoy singing with a wonderful choir and listening to a wide range of music particularly classical and jazz . Sport has been a major part of my life playing cricket, rugby and hockey until 'wear and tear' took it's toll and I took to golf and bowling. Now walking has become my main physical activity. Travelling has also played an important part - with trips most recently to India, China, Vietnam, Cambodia, Russia and Alaska. I enjoy cooking and good food. After an early retirement from a career in Personnel I spent 15 years as a volunteer working with young people going through difficult times. I am a Humanist believing we have just one life and should make the very best of this whilst being kind and considerate to our fellow human beings. I was lucky enough to spend 48 years in a happy marriage with my late wife. I miss the companionship, sharing and caring which a loving relationship brings and am hopeful that another such relationship is possible.

About his ideal match

A naturally empathic person with strong social values who has a genuine interest in others and is comfortable expressing their own feelings. Active with a love of walking in the countryside both at home and abroad. Someone who has an interest in sporting activities and also enjoys the arts. But also someone who is happy to spend time quietly at home with a good book, listening to music, or watching good TV programmes. It would be great if the person I am seeking shared my love of cooking and good food.
