In His Own Words
About him
I love both making and listening to music. I play the cello, playing preferably in small chamber ensembles such as string quartet or piano trio, and I enjoy going to concerts, the theatre and opera, and listening to Radio 3. I subscribe to Cinema Paradiso and usually rent films which aren't present day mainstream, e.g. arthouse, foreign language films or the classic films of the 1940s and 50s. And I like doing quizzes, even though I never seem to be able to answer many questions!
I try to keep physically fit, playing tennis and going running, and although I have a car, I get to most places, locally at least, on my bike, that is if I'm not taking my cello with me! I try to keep abreast of current affairs, listen to the Today programme every morning, watch Channel 4 News most evenings, and am a member of Amnesty International, although sadly not as active as I used to be.
I am very close to retirement now, less than a month to go. Mixed feelings about this, as I am lucky enough to really enjoy my work, but am finding it increasingly tiring, so I'm sure I will enjoy the slower pace of life
Holidays? I prefer lakes and mountains to sun, sand or snow. I'm not really an intrepid traveller (at least I can spell it though!), but I'm sure there are some idyllic spots close to home, without jetting half way round the globe.
My three children mean the world to me, of course, and I am thrilled to have maintained a close and loving relationship with them, now that they are young adults, and indeed that they get on so well with each other.
P.S. I realised that my photos are a few years old now, so have taken a fresh one (Aprilk 2024) as my main profile photo
About his ideal match
I am hoping to meet someone who shares my outlook on life and some of my interests, in particular my love of music. I'm looking for someone to love and be loved by, and it's important that we are able to offer each other mutual support.
Someone who is genuinely seeking a relationship. We all have our emotional baggage, and will have had our share of disappointments, but important to me is the desire to try and make it work in spite of that
