In His Own Words
About him
I'm outgoing and volunteering keeps me busy across a few fields close to my heart: music, the arts, orienteering, walking with groups. I'm a reader too and interested in the news and where the country's headed.
I sail on the River Exe and take trips down the Devon coast in summer. Cooking is a pleasure and I sometimes play the piano. I also sing in a small choir.
Music matters to me. An evening of classical music, something rich and unhurried, is close to my idea of perfect and I'd love nothing more than a live concert with someone with me who feels it too.
I'd love to take the scenic route through England with the right person too: unplanned drives, villages we've never heard of, an art gallery we stumble into by accident. No fixed itinerary, just good company and the willingness to see where the road goes.
If any of this sounds like your kind of evening, concerts, countryside and conversation, I'd love to hear from you.
About his ideal match
I’m looking for a woman with a positive attitude to life. Someone who says yes to a spontaneous plan and enjoys surprises. I’d like to share some activities with her ( possibly tennis, going to concerts, going to the pictures, exhibitions ) I would appreciate her having her own activities which we did not share but which I would love to hear about. And a spark of attraction matters too, someone I’ll look forward to putting my arms around.
