In His Own Words
About him
Recently widowed, I suppose I'm reasonably used to living alone most of the time, having got used to it over the last nine months or so, but I really dont like the lonely side of my life as it is
I keep myself pretty well occupied most of the time with the garden and house (in that order !), I do voluntary work one day a week, and try to do a decent length walk at least once a week, and am a member of local clubs
I tend not to read much at the moment, though that may change and prefer radio 4 over TV for news coverage.
Lived and worked abroad for a number of years, and travelled extensively, particularly around SE Asia
I would like to meet someone who has similar interests to me, though thats not a necessity, perhaps meet a couple of times a week, at least initially.
About his ideal match
That's pretty impossible to describe - someone who shares common interests and philosophy of life with mine, who feels comfortable in my company and vice versa
I'm happy to have an initial meeting, see how it goes and take it from there, if we both agree
Location could be an issue, ideally within a reasonable driving distance to enable a mutually convenient venue to be agreed.
