In His Own Words
About him
The years pass by fast, but, for me, it’s never too late to meet someone special. I’m youthful in spirit, fit and healthy, thoughtful and kind, and a romantic at heart. My photos are recent, with photos 1, 3, & 5 taken in July 2025.
Home is my garden - a place of azaleas, rhododendrons, magnolias - and my favourite spot is under the quince tree where I sit, relax, and dream, hopefully, of meeting you.
Travelling widely over the years - for example, to Australia and New Zealand, South Africa, Reunion, Argentina and Brazil, the Falkland Islands, Canada and the USA - has given me a deep appreciation for people, culture, and the joy of shared experiences.
I’m a retired university professor who still writes, speaks, and occasionally appears on radio and TV - my final photo is from a tv documentary due to be broadcast in France and Germany this year - but I’m no dusty academic.
I enjoy laughter, warmth, and making everyday moments feel special.
About his ideal match
I’d love to meet someone who values family and enjoys walking, eating out, National Trust gardens, music and theatre trips, or simply being together doing nothing at all.
If something here makes you smile, just say “Hi”. Let’s meet, talk, and see if that spark appears when our eyes meet. And if you enjoy dancing — or fancy a waltz or jive in the kitchen — I’m your man!
