In His Own Words
About him
I am an ordinary guy looking for love – for someone to love me as much as I love her. I greatly value honesty, integrity and kindness. Friends describe me as a warm, caring, loving, fun, intelligent, sensitive and considerate man. Tactile and an eternal optimist, I wear my heart on my sleeve. A proud dad and grandad, I have been a widower for almost nine years. I feel very strongly that the best years of my life are still ahead of me. Maybe I am asking too much. But my dream, my greatest wish is to find someone, the right woman, to share the next stage of my life. To enjoy being together with someone who loves travelling in the UK and abroad, dining out and in, and walking our beautiful countryside and among the hills of Wales and Scotland. Someone who would enjoy doing everyday things – from reading to listening to good music and snuggling up on a sofa – with me. Someone who would never take the things that we do, the lovely times we have, for granted. A writer all my life, I was a journalist for almost 30 years. Now a keen family history researcher, I have written three books in the past four years.
About his ideal match
I am looking for someone who believes in love - who is kind, loving, honest, caring, sensitive and fun to be with. Someone who is good company and loves going out and about, travelling around the UK and abroad, and enjoys eating in and out. Someone who loves doing the ordinary everyday things - like reading and walking and listening to good music. Someone who is tactile, loves walking hand in hand and cuddling up on the sofa. Honesty and integrity are very important to me. I would very much like to be with a woman who has a good sense of humour and enjoys being with a man with an optimistic outlook on life,
