In His Own Words
About him
I am quiet by nature but can be a fun guy in the right circumstances. Like quality as opposed to quantity. Enjoy the outdoors walking, gardening etc. Enjoy fine dining and the odd beer now and again. Hobbies include listening to and playing music (not very well).gardening, Interested in history, old buildings and machinery, still got my boyhood interest in railways. Like socialising with friends. Love travelling around the UK and overseas. Enjoy cruising,
I like to think I am reasonably tolerant but can't stand fag smoke I'm afraid.
Like many of us I have taken some knocks in recent years but there is life in the old dog yet and I am looking forward to getting on with life in a positive way with some good company to help me along the way.
About his ideal match
Fun personality but who also likes some of the finer things in life. Particularly dining, music and the outdoors. Someone who can laugh but also be serious when the need arises. Some one not averse to a drink now and again. A fun witty and tolerant personality is more important than drop dead gorgeousness.
I would like to share cooking with someone who actually knows how to do it. I'm getting better but would love to learn more.
Love to go for walks, visit old properties during the day, enjoy a meal and a beer in the evening and not come home to an empty house every night. Maybe go to a concert now and again. If things develop maybe go travelling together.
I think I am reasonably tolerant but fag smoke and foul language are a turn off I'm afraid.
