In His Own Words
About him
A retired investigation and design engineer who enjoys good food (pub or cosmo, Italian preferred), tasty wine, natural world, music, physics, exploration and learning, people watching, and would like to share these along the journey with a kindred spirited lady-friend 🙂
Are you a people-watcher? I'm a dog-person and would happily befriend yours. 🙂
I believe shared smiles, laughter and pleasures help make the glue which holds us together along the way. I'm thoughtful and tactile. 🙂
I don't have a particular bucket list of experiences or places to visit but do want to share a way forward with someone, finding a sympathetic mesh of happiness and pleasure. I do enjoy being in England/Wales/Scotland and am not especially driven to trot the globe.
(But roll-on the re-opening of Doncaster/Sheffield airport!)
About his ideal match
You'll enjoy a thoughtful, fun life - be one who cares about us and others, how we live, how we're going to leave the planet for our children and relishes the thought of sharing a happy journey with a like-minded guy.
At our age, when we've been without a full-time partner a few years, I think we divide time into three: on our own to do chores and pursue goals; or with friends and family, helping out, keeping upto date, sharing news and successes; and the reason we're on here - to share time, affection and happiness with a chosen other! 🙂
Do you share this view?
Shall we explore the future, together? 🙂
