In His Own Words
About him
I am a retired Chemical engineer, having spent many years working within the oil industry. I have had a wonderful life working and living all over the world with my career.
Having been a widower for 2 years, I would now like to look to the future and spend time with someone with whom I can share my stories and my love of good food and fine dining. I love the theatre, mostly enjoying Opera.
I have been very active during my life, with a love of sports. I now enjoy watching rather than participating. I watch many sports, including cycling, rugby, cricket, admittedly more lately to pass the time.
I am often described as having a quirky sense of humour. My PA quite often rolls her eyes at me and shakes her head!
People say I am generous and I am always willing to help, if I can.
The future looks sunny, I can't wait to get out and about with someone special.
About his ideal match
My ideal match would be kind, warm and gentle, I am quite a quietly spoken man, and don't like too much noise or fuss.
I am looking for someone to spend quality time with, chatting, theatre trips, going on days out and maybe further afield if it suits.
An appreciation of good food and fine dining would be pleasing, A love of sea food even better.
