In His Own Words
About him
So here we are searching for the ‘one’. I’ve had a great career, children grown up, many grandchildren but sharing the next chapter with someone would be great. I enjoy all the normal cultural stuff - cinema, theatre and art exhibitions- always better shared .
I have recently gone back into part time employment which is good to keep the mind active. Love to travel though not ventured abroad since the pandemic. Love the usual stuff - chat over coffee, wine and share views on life.
I am fit and active and have worked as a fitness instructor at local gyms.
About his ideal match
Someone with varied interests and positive outcome . Ideally someone local and a keen interest in what’s going on in the world
