In His Own Words
About him
What my friends say about me..
"Chris has been a loyal and dependable friend for more years than I care to remember. He is a rare breed; successful, intelligent, financially secure and with no emotional baggage whatever. Never married, Chris's interests and career (and probably his shyness) have kept him unattached for many years. He's reached a turning point in his life having recently brought property in France and it would be great if he could find someone to share this journey with. He's a sensitive guy, a good listener, and one of the most practically minded people I know. Our nickname for Chris is Norm (Norman know-all) based on the observation that he knows something about any subject you care to mention.
With no family demands, Chris has had plenty of time to pursue many hobbies including motorcycling, walking, potholing, IT to name but a few. He has many friends locally, but also groups in Derbyshire, and France, and still keeps in contact with many ex school friends, myself included.
Best of luck Chris - I hope this works out for you."
About his ideal match
Relaxed, quietly forceful, lots of interests and enjoys the out doors, cinema and the odd curry. Ideally someone who would be interested in helping me renovate my French hideaway, which like me is in need of modernisation and a little TLC. Nearly finished inside now, time to sink into the french lifestyle.
Not a shopper!
Bad news bit, I have been diagnosed with multiple myleoma, treatment has been succesful but its not a fix.Should probably pull this profile at some point.
