In His Own Words
About him
Having lost my wife of 54 years to cancer I'm looking to meet someone new to start enjoying the next chapter of my life. I'm a caring, affectionate, loyal person who enjoys going out for coffees, meals and spending time with friends.
I'm a hands on retired engineer, who enjoys using my knowledge and experience to help others, and as a hobby making things in my workshop . My hobbies include model engineering and classic cars. I have also recently started to take up learning the guitar.
I enjoy reading and watching films, and am looking for a like minded fun and positive person to initially share a friendship with. Who knows what it may lead to .
My profile pictures are recent : May 2024 , though not the best especially the second one as I don’t think I’m very photogenic (you decide ) . Most people take me to be ‘years younger than my actual age (so I’m told) as I’m quite fit and active , although in my mind I’m still 34 .
About his ideal match
I'm hoping to meet a relaxed, caring and kind companion with a good sense of humour who shares my enjoyment of simply being together whether over a coffee, lunch or meal to chat with and watch the world go by , someone who is open to sharing their time to enjoy new experiences and holidays etc.
If this is you say Hi .
