In His Own Words
About him
Looking to the Future - mine will change when my Partner (who has Alzheimer's Disease) enters Care Home. Not looking forward to that, after 21+ years.
If you are serious, please read on.
My Politics are just very slightly Right of Centre. I am a Countryman - Cities are for visits. Caring, Intellectual and Practical Gentleman (Widower - sadly, no Children I am aware of), who has had enough knocks (Physical and Emotional); Travelled the world a great deal on Business; Healthwise - may have 18 more years 'under the hood', but I'd be glad to get some Body Repairs done - currently paying for the 'Fun' of the Past (Backpacking, Caving, Rugby). Love Music - used to Perform in (and Run) an Amateur Operatic Society, probably from Mum (see below), although I enjoy Blues, Classical, Jazz and C&W as well. Looking for a Lady who is a Sharer, not a Competitor; my Weakness is that I like Helping People.
I was Raised on a small Farm (by an Accountant/Former Boxer Father, and a Former Opera Singer Mother) and Admired my Parents, before pursuing Academia and Employment in Science, Technology and Engineering; Love Fly-Fishing ... if I can catch the flies; Keen on Bridge even from School Days; had the Contract to Replace all the broken School windows; Used to go Shooting (Clay, Deer, Game and Vermin - also Target Rifles - now mostly ceased); probably classed as a Technofile; Keen Reader, started Writing before my 2nd Wife died, re-started again of more recent date with two books whilst Caring for my Partner (the prettiest lady in the photo) who sadly, suffers from Alzheimer's Disease.
Experienced in practical matters, but DIY is essential, rather than a love (now on my 7th Remodelling Project); Creative Gardening has been an interest. Believe Life is what you make it. Used to play (Contract) Bridge, somewhat assertively, now without a Partner. Tactile, not phased by Public Demonstration of Affection; the Mind is Willing, but the Body is a bit Worn - please be gentle with me.
P.S. "I Love It When A Plan Comes Together".
About his ideal match
Interested in a Kind, Caring Lady with a Fun Side; Domestic Skills rate A+; looking for Sharer, NOT Competitor; Sense of Humour Essential; a Lady who is Fair to view (in my eyes); Car Driver preferred; Would love to develop Activities to share (I enjoy Bridge, but willing to try new Activities - except Bungee Jumping and Sky Diving), someone who can enjoy Travel and also simply Relaxing; No more 'Control Freaks', please (been there - never again). Do NOT admire inks/tattoos.
Surgery has limited my Agility - like a 'Used Car'. I'm good for a few more miles/years. Loath Fraudsters, Scammers, cannot abide people who take advantage of Vulnerable Persons or are Cruel to Animals.
Bible-Thumpers, Devout Vegetarians/Vegans - just ignore me; comfortable with my attitude to Religions and as I was raised on a Farm, I know the Realities of Life and getting my own Food. My Politics started Conservative, then became more Liberal, now A-Political - I actually stood as an Independent in Borough Elections.
My Idea of Heaven - to wake up beside the (tactile) lady I love and Care (hope my occasional use of a CPAP Mask doesn't put you off !).
P.S. GP has advised that I might make the Family Lifeline, so I could be around until age 95. Dreadful Thought !
P.P.S - Don't take me too seriously - I don't.
