In His Own Words

About him

I am friendly, warm, loving, enthusiastic, energetic, flexible and young at heart. I have bags of stamina; I like to keep busy.

I am interested in 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 love good food and drink. I am happy to dress 'smartly' when appropriate.

I'm very happy at home, but I love to travel, particularly in Western Europe, more particularly in Spain, France, Greece and Italy, preferably freelancing, but it's less fun alone; also visiting various parts of Britain, perhaps a few days in a country-house hotel, with a couple of nice walks.

Having said that I like my home, I am pretty flexible about where I live, provided I were with the right person. The possibility of spending some of the winter months somewhere warm certainly appeals.

Also appealing, on winter evenings, is spending time in front of a log fire (which I have) with the right girl and the proverbial bottle of wine.

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. A bit of a sun worshipper!

I am told that I am generous, also that I am young for 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 very open and honest and am decidedly not an opportunist in relationships. I know how to treat a lady. I am emotionally intelligent. I relish the physical side of a relationship...

I have two great daughters and six quite young (eldest fourteen) grandchildren.

My primary objective in this exercise is to find a loving soulmate with whom to have lots and lots of fun.

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 take people as she finds them and do her best to to put them at their ease.

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, spoilt and generally made a fuss of (but not to excess). She would hope to fall in love again.

Ideally she would like to walk and generally enjoy the outdoors, including the beach, the sun and the sea. Virtually nothing is a deal breaker, though.
