In His Own Words
About him
Slightly irreverent polymath retired medical professional, young in mind and body, OHAT, fit and active, in no hurry to grow up. Yachtsman, ex-pilot, musician, engineer, electrician, historic house restorer, shipwright, gardener, photographer and more. Outdoorsy, not a great lover of pomp and circumstance, but can polish up well when required. Versatile, creative, sensitive and perceptive. High EQ. Moggy rather than doggy, though animals and I get along fine. Photographs are all recent.
... But you and I have life to hold
The greatest story never told ...

About his ideal match
I wouldn't want to be prescriptive! Chemistry is unpredictable but vital. Some common ground would be great, but then variety is the spice of life. Space in a relationship is important, too.
