In His Own Words
About him
I live in the North ( work across the UK) and genuinely love the region—and the people! I am confident, love conversation and like to think that I have a sense of humour ( although my children may disagree because don't get all of my jokes..). I have a zest for life and make the most of every day! I have no intention of buying any slippers, a pipe or wearing a flat cap!
I’m an active person and exercise every days with my 4 year old lab and most days in the gym.
I would live to find someone to share adventures and just time with. For me, the key ingredients in a relationship are chemistry, sharing, and of course laughter.
I love the mountains, the sea, the countryside, wild weather and the cities ( to be energised). I also believe in communities where we work to support each other. I am involved with a couple of Charites and am on our local village committee! Coffee morning are my natural habitat.............

About his ideal match
I'm looking for someone who brings chemistry, curiosity, and laughter into the mix. Someone who enjoys good conversation, appreciates the outdoors as much as a cosy coffee morning, and has a genuine zest for life. I would like a partner who’s active, open‑minded, and up for exploring—whether that’s a walk with the dog, a wild-weather hike, a city weekend, or simply sharing everyday moments that feel better together.
I value kindness, community, and shared purpose, so someone who cares about people and the world around them would be great.. A sense of humour matters—ideally someone who laughs easily (even at the jokes my children don’t rate). I'm definitely not looking for a slippers-and-pipe existence; I want someone who’s still excited about life, still curious, still willing to try new things.
Ultimately, I'm looking for a partner who feels like a teammate: someone to share adventures, conversations, quiet moments, and the kind of connection that makes the ordinary feel a little more extraordinary!
