In His Own Words
About him
Rattling around in a Devon country house. Just about solvent despite divorce, old house, and many children.
I am a fit 68 year old. Photos 2019 - 2026. I’ll leave it to you to guess which is the most recent. I can still walk up a Dartmoor hill when pushed, especially if it’s to view the amazing bluebell field near Castle Drogo - I can see both from where I live. I like tennis (erratic and subject to the previous caveat), swimming, old but fast cars, and messing about in boats. I occasionally ‘dance like nobody’s looking’, which is best kept to my-self, trust me.
Amongst my more cerebral interests are fine art, photography, architecture, theatre, the Holland Park opera, and space exploration (much to the amazement of my children I’m old enough to remember the moon landings), and just generally learning new things. I even still read the occasional book.
I’m looking for someone either nearby in Devon, or in London who might like weekends in the countryside in return for weekends in London. Companionship and shared interests to begin with, and then whatever follows.
About his ideal match
Kindness. Tolerance. Communication. Loyalty (excepting gentle constructive criticism). Faithfulness. The ability to say sorry - surprising how many people lack that essential trait. A companion with shared interests and enthusiasms, even some new, and fun and laughter too. Someone with the intelligence, the imagination, and the resources to go out and find whatever it is they want and hopefully share those experiences and insights over a glass or two of wine and a good meal whether out or at home in front of the fire.
