In His Own Words
About him
I'm on the edge of retirement and currently working as a full time volunteer at two large Church institutions near Westminster Abbey. Although this gives my life meaning, I have time to spread my wings and to enjoy life. I live in central London where there is much to explore and do, and until recently had a holiday flat in my native rural Northumberland.
A friend describes me as a person who gives. I spent many years looking out for my mother and elderly half sister and now planning retirement and looking for new ideas. People tell me I am charming, with a dry sense of humour. Educated at Marlborough and Clare Cambridge. I'm a committed traditional Christian for whom faithfulness, family and commitment is important. For me my faith means daily Gregorian chanting at home, visits to Alton Abbey near Winchester. I enjoy outings in the country, especially with good food, visits to Cambridge University Library, and travel.
I'm a member in Central London, social member of a major golf club and can hold a good conversation. I give talks from time to time on the Early Church, and enjoy good music and annual visits to Glyndebourne for the superb music, gardens and antiques in the Organ Room.
About his ideal match
I am looking for a friendly face for a bite to eat, or a coffee, and the opportunity to have mutually interesting discussions. I would prefer those conversations not to be about pets, golf, horses or bridge but other than that I'm open to learning about you and your interests. I hope to find someone who values family and has strong Church connections, preferably traditional and who is gentle, genuine and kind.
