In His Own Words
About him
I've been described as a critical friend by some. I'm considered reliable, helpful, fairly down to earth, sensible, and passionate about the people and things that I care about.
I enjoy my swimming, gardening, walks, reading the paper, a modicum of DIY, my music choices, supermarket shopping (strangely - but I'm not yet ready for the delivery option), holidays/travel (at the moment it's mainly cruises), meeting interesting people.
If I have any dislikes then they're in the form of opinions that reflect on the many and various social, political, and international issues that prevaill at any one time.
I like to dance to my music. Northern Soul, Tamla Mowtown, House Mix, Summer dance Hits, Upbeat mix etc. on Spotify. I'm not a fan of opera, and although I like some popular classical music, in the main it's over my head. Watching TV (no soaps). I find gardening both demanding, and satisfying. Holidays and foriegn travel can be challenging, but also stimulating, relaxing, and rewarding. Oh, and did I mention siestas? No day is complete without one.
My outlook is to make the most of and enjoy what time that I have left. To do my best to retain my good health, which will hopefully enable me to enjoy a good quality of life and continue to do the things that I enjoy doing, and maybe meet someone with whom I could share many of those activities, enjoy lively conversations, and even introduce me to some of their own.
