In His Own Words
About him
Hi. Thanks for reading my profile.
Genuine guy here, easy going, intelligent kind and caring. Married for over 40 years but now 3 years widowed.
Retired from a London based career in banking and financially secure with own home etc.
Family orientated I socialise with family and friends very regularly but missing that special woman in my life.
Various interests including theatre visits to London, particularly enjoy musicals and the occasional ballet.
Visiting galleries and museums as well.
Days out to the coast and country. It's nice to stroll along by the sea or visit a lovely garden or NT place.
I'm a member of the NT and RHS.
Certainly enjoy restaurant and pub lunches, evening meals as well.
Or just meeting up for coffee cake and chat.
I'm a member of the local health club and try to keep fit with mostly swimming nowadays.
Well travelled, both short and long haul, I enjoy city breaks and longer holidays both UK and abroad.
Photos 2024 & 2025.
