In His Own Words
About him
Quiet, reserved, fit, healthy, look after myself and told I do not look my age, to me age is but a number. Loved my job and did not retire until I was 76 but do not miss the daily London commute. Rather old fashioned values and believer that opposites attract. Live in Thorpe Bay.
Into DIY and my garden, hate gardening.
Want to start travelling again and have a bucket list which includes Australia, revisit Goa but my favourite Dominican Republic/Caribbean has a current bad seaweed problem (Sargassum) making me look to other areas. Love Greece and still have many Greek friends from my work days.
Like limited outdoor pursuits, walking, cycling, fishing, football and water pursuits.
Very close to my two grandsons (5 & 15) and like to spend time with them as often as possible as they live locally.
Not very good on IT matters and the only photo acceptable to this site was my passport photo taken in Feb 22, yes, l do smile.
About his ideal match
Would like to meet easy going, normal, everyday lady with similar interests/values but do accept sometimes opposites attract. Do believe not necessarily living in each other's pockets is the foundation to a good relationship. Somebody who has looked after themselves but a non-smoker and not into heavy body art, not looking for a housekeeper.
