In His Own Words
About him
Reasonably educated and travelled man, slow travelling the world. Retired school teacher at home in the town or country, looking at beautiful sites, old buildings, eating local specialties, whether a Bakewell pudding or Nasi goreng. I enjoy cooking (I do a mean sourdough), jigsaw puzzles, loud music, theatre, reading, R4. Definitely not golf!
In a previous life I was a builder so I’m reasonably handy if you need a wall built.
I love events; I’ve danced in the New Year at the Pump room in Bath, been mesmerised by Aida in the amphitheatre in Verona, celebrated as England beat Australia in the last test at the Oval. So many more things to do and it would be fabulous to do them with a passionate woman.
One day I plan to settle down with a small dog and a cuddly cat, but until then?
Temporarily based in rural Wales, but trying to see more of the world; looking for an intelligent, compassionate woman to accompany on that journey.
About his ideal match
A bit quirky, a bit new age, a bit inquisitive, a bit spiritual, a bit left of centre, a bit adventurous, someone who is kind.
They look good in jeans, but love to dress up for the theatre.
Someone to accompany me to Womad, someone to walk arm in arm down Brighton pier, someone to tour Western Australia in a camper van, someone to drink tea with in the Cameron highlands. Just sit and hold hands by an outside fire in Powys.
I’m looking for someone who prefers the Guardian to the Daily Mail. She’s wishing for a better, fairer world.
