In His Own Words
About him
I consider myself to be kind, a good listener and willing to help others. A practical person good at solving problems.
I have hearing aids so only like to socialize in small groups.
Enjoy good health and keep active. i belong to 2 walking groups and enjoy going on walking holidays in the UK and Europe. I am a member of NT and volunteer on Brownsea Island one day a week, also volunteer on Swanage Railway.
I am a keen gardener and enjoy visiting numerous gardens. I love the countryside and always try to be outside in the open air.
Enjoy watching F1, Cycling and snooker. Like a wide range of music especially jazz and R&B. Creatively I like taking unusual atmospheric photographs
About his ideal match
I am looking for an optimistic lady who is fun to be with, has a good sense of humour, is honest and considerate.
Would like to have a travelling companion to go on walking holidays in the UK and in Europe, who is interested in the countryside and enjoys looking around old towns and gardens.
I am not looking for marriage but have a relationship as a friend and companion.
I would not consider a lady who is selfish, bad tempered, a smoker or heavy drinker
