In His Own Words
About him
I believe I am kind, funny, open-minded, adaptable and practical. I still like to use my brain, so I'm a reader, I'm constantly curious about things and life and the lives of people around me. I love music (particularly classical of course) attending concerts, art, theatre, films. I enjoy walking, but not route marches(!). I've enjoyed a relatively full and interesting life that involved international travel around the world and I remain optimistic about life. Just in passing, I was asked this week when would I be 70, so I think, maybe, that I am wearing reasonably well. I think it is all in the attitude. :-)
About his ideal match
Oh, wow! That's a tricky question? Principally, someone with a kind heart and a frequent smile. Open minded and willing to talk about life and feelings. Generous of spirit and capable of love. Willing to have me hold their hand in public and share intimacy if the conditions are right. Someone to share my 'likes' and willing to support each other. "Good luck with that" you may be saying, but I am an optimist, and it might happen.....
