In His Own Words
About him
I am a lifelong resident of Aveley, Essex. Approachable, sociable, friendly - said to be a good friend who tries to be helpful - and a gentleman who does not drive but makes good use of Public Transport & 'Shank's Pony'.
NB. I am said to be 'borderline DB2?'. My 'False hampsteads' bathe independently each morning! I am more Liberal than Conservative
When I wake up I am full of ideas / plans for the day ahead. Then I 'Get Up'!.........
LIKES: Holidays in the U.K. mainly B & B in Torbay area of Devon (visiting Cornwall) and near Europe (my passport expired during the pandemic and am considering renewing same for the next 'Dordt in Stoom' event in Dordrecht, The Netherlands 29/05/2026 – 31/05/2026), the truth and reliability.
DISLIKES: ignorance (in particular the gross misuse of punctuation and quotation marks in profiles and messages), rudeness and unreliability.
Has been an Amateur Photographer (both scenic & transport subjects) since 1963, Transport Enthusiast, likes furry pets, gardening and Railway Modelling.
A life member of: Bluebell Railway Pres. Society, CAMRA, Heritage Railway Assn., WWF., N.T. and English Heritage.
An avid ClassicFM listener.
Relaxation = TV, London Theatre and live Classical Concerts.
Looking for a long, happy and hopeful loving future with a loving lady.
I wish you all well in your searches.
