In His Own Words
About him
Good to have around. Reliable, trustworthy, loyal, fit, solvent, own hair and teeth, can turn a hand to most things. Can cook, iron, make things, bake bread, knit yoghurt. Ok; maybe not the latter.
Have been described as a wit. At least, that's what I think they said. A gentleman with impeccable manners and an occasional foul mouth when the vicissitudes of 2025 Britain become too much.
Ex military (officer) so does everything by numbers. Ok, not absolutely everything. Two, three, four.
A little unorthodox and not inclined to go with the flow. Keenly interested in many areas too numerous to mention, and totally uninterested in many others. Our place in the universe, nature and the wonders of Spring fall into the former category and reality tv, soap operas, football and anything to do with woke fall firmly into the latter.
My main pastime, once we have met, will obviously be to make you happy and see to your every desire. In the meantime, I am into gardening, walking/hiking, cycling, music- mainly classical but not exclusively - fine wine and good food.
Currently tied to North Yorkshire (not literally - unless that's your thing 😊) due to caring for an elderly parent but that is not forever, for obvious reasons.
Photos are all from the last two years. Sorry; I don't have any of me topless holding a big fish. Nor is that a euphemism.
About his ideal match
Someone kind. And calm. Someone who has come through life so far with their head held high, who has triumphed over adversity and who now looks forward to good times ahead with a loyal partner, standing tall together. Sense of humour essential!
Looking for an equal both physically, emotionally and intellectually. That is likely to mean you are bright, active and funny but we won't really know until we meet. We obviously need to fancy each other.
I am struck, reading literally hundreds of profiles on here, how few have even a hint of humour in them. Please take note. Humour is attractive!
Also, I am unlikely to be inspired if you lack the imagination to come up with your own profile headline. Especially if you replicate the spelling errors in the suggestions.
And finally, you may think that the following phrases are stunningly original, but let me assure you they are not.
Carpe Diem.
Looking for my last first date/kiss.
Let's see what happens.
Glass Half Full 😁
