In His Own Words
About him
Firstly - I do my best to be friendly, kind and generous - don’t always succeed, which is why the following are important:
* Endeavouring to keep my sense of proportion, empathy and humour.
* Working at keeping my mind open and enquiring.
* Remembering that “Every day is a school day” - see, learn and accept life’s lessons.
Important items:
I’m disciplined about diet, health and fitness - unsympathetic to those who are not 🙃
I’m a veg-heavy omnivore - eat virtually zero processed food - but will eat anything else.

So tell me Douglas Adams - just what is the meaning of Life, the Universe and Everything?
A lot of people seem to be asking the same question - I certainly am, and the question is often expressed as “Where did all the laughter go?”
Probably my greatest desire is for a close friend to share a sense of humour with.

The future:
Now that I’m no longer full time carer for mum, I want to get out on the road exploring every corner of Europe and beyond for a few months each year - my style of travel is to enjoy the journey - not fixate on the destination.
________________
I’m more interested in a happy and dynamic friendship than romance.
