In His Own Words
About him
Love all music especially classical, blues, soul, rock.
My photos are recent.
The one in the 60s outfit was last year at a 60s birthday party so I decided to go as a pimp!!!
Good cook!
(So I've been told!)
I love to drive long distances if you can navigate.
Like going to cinema but not so much fun on my own which also applies to live music, art galleries and holidays.
I'm a dog lover and enjoy going for long walks but it would help if I had a partner and a dog!
I would be willing to re-locate for the right relationship.
My last relationship of 18 months sadly ended last year although we are still on friendly terms which is important to me as no matter what caused the break up (probably both at fault), there were good times and I think it's best being positive and remembering these rather than dwell on any negatives.
GSOH a must and I don't take life too seriously.
Eternal optimist and romantic!
And my name 'Tactile' means what it says so am very touchy feely when in a relationship!
Bit more about me!
Other hobbies include playing chess, scrabble, backgammon,pub quizzes and other physical pastimes.
Dislikes include bullying,interrupting,talking over people etc
Basically I'm 'old school' and love treating ladies as ladies
I am at a crossroads in my life and would consider moving for the right person and that could be anywhere!
No really, anywhere, as I've lived in East Yorks, Nth Yorks, Devon, Oxfordshire, Northants,Spalding Lincs, Bucks and the Scottish Borders and enjoyed them all moving where work took me but I'm retired now and solvent and single!
I'm currently living in a village near Spalding but not sure if it's for me as it's a bit quiet and the only Pub has closed!
I keep myself busy doing voluntary work for a local charity which involves taking the elderly or infirm to hospitals and doctors appointments etc
I do this several times a week and really enjoy it apart from when the odd one starts arguing with my SatNav!!
About his ideal match
Intelligent attractive, curvy lady who has a good sense of humour, enjoys life and likes being pampered and spoilt but who also likes to spoil and pamper back!
It's called give and take!
Sport enthusiast would be a bonus but not a problem if you're not.
I also love dogs having had several myself including 2 English Bull Terriers!
Like cats too but am allergic to some!
I appreciate that there has to be a spark and that only comes when we first meet!
So chemistry between us is very important but only the start!
