In His Own Words
About him
I'm a retired engineer who is widowed and seeking companion and friendship.
I like to explore museums and places of interest, walking/hiking, seeing live music, going to the cinema, doing road trips, and watch most sports, particularly motorsports, cricket and football.
Even though I’m someone who’s discovering himself I will always prioritise the needs of others. I’m compassionate, sympathetic, kind and an attentive listener. I have good sense of humour and good at offering advice, or so I’ve been told!
About his ideal match
I'm looking for someone who has similar interests and can also introduce me to explore new ones. Ideally, I would like to connect with a person for a lasting, profound and meaningful friendship based on mutual respect and shared values and aspirations that might develop into something deeper, who is kind, down-to-earth, and values honesty. In addition to a keen mind, I would like to meet someone with a great and quirky sense of humour so we can share laughter, good conversation and enjoy our time together, as well as being curious and eager to explore new experiences and create fun memories.
