In His Own Words
About him
Are you looking for the needle in a haystack? I see you have moved the straw aside and have eyed me up. Well, to tell you a bit about myself here are some threads below and you might ‘cotton on’ that it’s more than a bland grey profile, I’m not here to stitch you up!
I'm a retired university lecturer (medical / science related) and have a reliable, calm, kind, quiet and thoughtful personality. I enjoy travelling, reading, cooking, contemporary jazz and photography (B&W). I keep myself fit and active with road cycling, swimming and walking. I’ve also been known to play the tenor sax and paint watercolours.
I’ve been told I am a good cook particularly with fish and hearty stews and regularly enjoy preparing a meal with fresh ingredients. I also bake the occasional fruit cake. I've no tattoos or metal work (including hips!) and my photos are approximately in the last 12 months.
About his ideal match
I'm not keen on dogs (or league football) but don't mind catching spiders 🕷️ as long as it's not a Latrodectus! Unless you are prone to spontaneous combustion 🤔 on reading this, smoking 🚭is not acceptable.
Spontaneity in a relationship is helped by not being too far apart, so if you’re within a reasonable driving distance of South Birmingham that would be good.
