In His Own Words
About him
I am easy going chap with an inquisitive mind, young at heart, gregarious, affectionate, and a playful streak. I am of Goan descent, a good mix of Portuguese/Indian cultures and educated at a Catholic boys’ school [where I get my childish humour from].
Eclectic taste in music from Baroque to the Stones. Like to attend all kinds of concerts and local jazz gigs. Love all forms of arts & culture. Enjoy participating in sport, recently taken up padel tennis, and watching be it rugby or cricket or tennis. Needless to say, enjoy good food and a G & T and of course what makes it special, is great company! Regularly visit London to enjoy all it has to offer and the countryside and seaside which is on the doorstep.
I have been lucky to have worked abroad and travelled extensively through it and pleasure, however, lots of places still to see.
After a long career as a banker, to give something back to society, I became a local councillor and volunteered for a couple of local charities.
Retired last year with plans on spending more time having fun, travelling and playing sport badly!
Have a wonderful daughter at uni. and a good group of friends.
About his ideal match
Considerate, passionate, intelligent and an ability to relax and have fun. Looking for an equal partnership with respect. Drop me a line, promise I don't bite, only when I get excited! Not interested in silly games and an endless exchange of emails, would rather meet. Photos please for a response.
My photos were taken last year.
