In His Own Words
About him
No Man is an Island.
As a widow I've felt isolated & even through the groups I'm part of it's hard socialising outside of the group setting.
I'm a true Yorkshireman - strong-willed and opinionated, but I'm extremely caring & considerate. I guess I'd be called masterful and chivalrous. I'm ex merchant navy boy & I've travelled the world several times with many stories to tell. I was also in the RAF. I'm a retired builder and built most of the current house in which I currently live.
I attend line dancing and have just started Tai Chi. I love countryside walking, stopping for a pub lunch or tea (Yorkshire!) and cake or having a picnic. I also love beach walks with fish and chips and weekends away in my campervan. I have an older dog who doesn't actually like walking!
I don't care for crowds or busy-ness & seek out the quieter places, I prefer life in the slow lane without drama - except from an episode of Vera or Midsomer Murders, but I don't actually watch much TV aside of the news as I like listening to music.
My daughter says I have a good sense of humour and that I'm a bit cheeky. She also says I never sit still, but I prefer to be active and out and about.
My daughter set up a profile on my behalf but Country Loving didn't allow this & removed it so I've created my own - with her help! I'll soon be moving from Yorkshire to be near my lovely Daughter on the North Cornwall coast.
About his ideal match
As I'm a Yorkshire Pudding, I think a Cornish Pasty would make for a nourishing, fulfilling and enjoyable friendship.
