In His Own Words
About him
I am good company in most settings as my friends will attest. I have been alone since losing my partner of 25 years 8 years ago and only now feel that I would like to start a new relationship with a new soul mate. I have many interests and much to offer if I can find the right person to spend time with. I work from home and enjoy my large gardens and my life on a Cotswold hillside - so much so that I do not feel the desire to travel the world nor to bungee jump into a New Zealand gorge or wind surf across the Pacific ocean. I am mostly a happy person, kind to others and kind to animals though I have no pets. I like motorcycling when I can find the time and I enjoy playing guitar. I am a specialist restorer and my major hobby is music of many kinds - especially in live performance and I enjoy cinema from its beginnings to the present day including world cinema and independent movies. My outlook on life is atheist and positive and I am politically decidedly left wing.
About his ideal match
I would like to meet and spend time with someone passionate and compassionate, intelligent and kind and good company. I like creative people. I would like to spend time doing those things that people in their sixties enjoy - country walks, theatre, cinema, cooking, gardening and relaxing at home or on weekend breaks by the sea. My ideal match would be someone who sees grey hair as a badge of survival not something to regret. I cannot get along with politically right wing people which is, I suppose, a deal breaker for me.
