In His Own Words
About him
I think people would described me as fun, generous, loyal, kind and interesting. I am optimistic with a good sense of humor. I enjoy travel and have had the good fortune to have visited many beautiful places. I also enjoy walking and spending, on average, one day a week trekking the footpaths somewhere in the Chilterns or away on walking holidays. I try and keep fit and health but I am not obsessive about it. My educational background a degree in Engineering then a Masters in Computer Science and recently completed a degree in Geology. I took the option of early retirement a few years ago to enable me to enjoy the things that matter most to me. I like the arts and volunteer at the local arts centre. My politics are left of centre, and if I read a newspaper it would be The Guardian. All the radios are tuned to R4 in my house. I have some interest in gardening and have NT membership. I also keep bees, collect in fungi in the autumn and play bridge a few times a month.
About his ideal match
Someone who is kind, loyal, generous, loving and intelligent. I seek to share some of my interests and would like to learn about some of your passions. I would love to share some walking and vacations adventures but I imagine we would also have our own separate interests. Perhaps watch some good films or plays or perhaps read a book to one another or have a good talk about everything and nothing. I would expect my partner to end up as my best friend and we would enjoy each others company. That said I have huge capacity to love and interactive with people and I am looking for a close loving relationship.
