In His Own Words
About him
I am a friendly, warm, loving and affectionate person. I am enthusiastic, energetic, flexible and young at heart. I have bags of stamina. I like to keep busy.
I am interested in very many things, including the arts and particularly classical music and film. I love ballet. I also enjoy a lot of light music and pop. I enjoy good food and drink. I am happy to look 'smart' to please my companion.
I love my home and the village in which I live, but every so often I love to travel, particularly in Western Europe, more particularly in France, Greece and Italy, preferably freelancing, but such travel is not so much fun on one's own. I also like visiting various parts of Britain; perhaps a few days in a country-house hotel with a couple of nice walks.
I work at home on a flexible basis, and much less than full-time, as a writer
I greatly enjoy walking/hiking. I also love to laze on a beach in the sun and to swim in the sea.
I am told that I am generous, also that I am young for my age. I certainly don't feel my age. I like to think that I am thoughtful and perceptive and that I am a good listener. I love fun and banter and I don't take myself too seriously.
Although I am relaxed and generally content to fit in with the plans of others, I will take the initiative to organise trips and outings. I don't like inactivity for too long.
I really like and respect women and feel very comfortable with them; I am told that this is not necessarily true of all men. I am very open and honest and am decidedly not an opportunist in relationships. I know how to treat a lady. I am emotionally intelligent.
I have two great daughters and six quite young (eldest eleven) grandchildren. I love to see them frequently, but they do not dominate my life and I am capable of holding a conversation without talking about them constantly.
My primary objective in this exercise is to find a loving soulmate to have lots of fun with.
About his ideal match
My ideal match would be someone who is fun, feminine, friendly, warm, tactile and loving with a bit of a sense of adventure and a desire to travel. She would be fun loving, enthusiastic, easy going, not fussy and not too set in her ways. She would not be moody, though not expected to be constantly bubbly. She would be keen on being outdoors.She would take people as she finds them and do her best to to put them at their ease (my favourite definition of being well mannered).
I greatly appreciate a girl who likes to dress up a bit to look her best.
She would be looking for a committed relationship: being half of a 'couple'. This would not necessarily mean 'living in each others pockets', but broadly spending most of our time being together. She would appreciate being cherished.
Ideally she would like to walk, though not necessarily 20-mile endurance tests. She would also enjoy the outdoors, including the beach, the sun and the sea.
