In His Own Words

About him

Old guy with a young outlook, still a mod, looking for someone to share coffee, red wine and visits to live music with. Walks at the coast, meals out and drives in the countryside.Evenings in listening to Motown, soul, and Classic fm.I’m a positive man whose glass is half full, but since losing my first love and best friend a couple of years ago I miss little things, holding hands, hugging and even having an argument. I scrub up well and don’t dress the age I am in my head (34). Sadly that’s my waist measurement now. Just found jeans that fit properly at this time of my life. I have a lot of friends mostly male, some female who have been very supportive after my loss, I’m happy in my own skin, but would like to share leisure time with someone who feels the same. I’ve travelled widely and love Japan and most things Japanese. Now love cruising, it’s a great way to meet people. I am happy to travel on my own but it would be lovely to have someone to share it with. I prefer to be warm given the choice and don’t really like ice and snow. I’m a people watcher and never happier than sitting making absurd stories up about those around me, with a coffee or beer in my hand. Life’s for living ! We don’t know when the adventure is going to end but sadly it will. So let’s have some fun and happy times whilst we can.

About his ideal match

Someone who wants to share outings and adventures with me. With a similar outlook on life. Preferably living not too far away, but I still drive and 50/60 miles for the right person is nothing. I would like to meet somebody with an open mind who laughs easily, likes the occasional pub visit, walking on our beautiful north coast, fish and chips,a glass, or two, of red and is not looking for someone who is 6 ft tall, I’m 5’7” and am not likely to grow anymore. If they liked Northern Soul and Motown that’s a bonus. I have always had a preference for blondes (natural or otherwise) and always have but let’s see. If I message you and you aren’t interested in meeting, please be honest and just say so. However if you just want to chat, great. We are at the age where we are losing more friends than we are making. I’m a grown up and can accept “no”. Let’s just see what happens, who knows ?
