In His Own Words
About him
I enjoy quite simple things such as walks and leisurely lunches as well as enjoying live music of most kinds and exploring new places here and abroad. I am happy with time to myself - I certainly don't need people around all the time - but the best times are sharing with family and close friends. Playing various musical instruments is a favourite way of relaxing - I'm now learning the cello. I have more time now as a retired academic and would like to share interests with someone who has a similar outlook.
About his ideal match
I'd be drawn to someone who is open, honest, comfortable being herself, and like me takes pleasure in quite simple things and enjoys music. She would probably be someone who is always learning, discovering and developing interests.
