In His Own Words
About him
I'm a former Council worker who currently cares, long-term, for his 96 year old father. I'm undergoing a period of re-assessment and change in my life and feel that life will be so much better with someone to share it with.
I've always had an abiding interest in matters artistic and particularly enjoy music, opera, dance and the theatre. You'll see that I've declared a disability, but this only slightly reduces my mobility, although I don't currently drive.
As you may imagine, being a full-time carer currently restricts my availability, but I hope to stay in contact with any friends I make through this process. I hope that I'm caring, supportive and a good listener - but as I'm self-deprecating, I leave that to others to judge.
About his ideal match
I hope to find male(s) who are younger than myself and who enjoy the arts to share experiences. I look for care, understanding and respect and tolerance of my current domestic situation. A good sense of humour will be a great bonus.
Physically, I prefer individuals of slim to average build, who do not smoke and drink in moderation. Politically, I consider myself to be slightly left of centre and although I consider myself agnostic at best, I support everyone's right to a belief if they so choose
