In His Own Words
About him
I am a semi-retired widower. Now ready again to live for the future.
Am doing OK being single again - but much in life is better when shared,
Looking for someone to share things in their life with me - whilst respecting in each other a degree of independence.
Am interested in (dabble in) many things: I play guitar (jazz and Spanish) and am learning piano; am learning to draw and to paint; I love gardening; I love watching cricket - on TV and at matches. I like cooking basic things and listening to the radio. I swim most days.
Have recently developed an interest in birdwatching but don’t intend to become a twitcher.
Am working to improve my basic Spanish, and I spend part of every month at my flat in the centre of Malaga, Spain.
I'm looking for someone with a positive frame of mind. Open to new things - not a 'can't' or 'won't' person.
I'm a positive and optimistic person. My dread is to turn into Victor M. Please save me!!
About his ideal match
Have you a bright personality with positive outlook for the future? Have you a sense of humour? Are you keen to try new things?
Are there things you do which you would like to do with me? I am generally keen to have a go - but don't do extreme sports: or go close to horses.
Do you want to practise writing and/or speaking Spanish? In conversation?As a penpal?
Could we get together to draw or paint?
Maybe we could make music - I would love to meet someone who would like to have a go at singing guitar-accompanied songs. American songbook etc. Just for fun!
Perhaps garden together? Your place and mine.
Cycling, walking, swimming .......
Some of these things need someone to live reasonably close - others can be done at a distance.
My aim is to make new activity friends - and then just see what happens.
If you've read this far, you've clearly not been too put off ....
Would be great to hear from you.
