In His Own Words
About him
Retired Grammar Schoolmaster. I'm 85 [2017], but my doctor says my general condition is of a man 10 to 15years younger, as I keep fit and active - can walk up to 15 mile, but usually do about 6.
I was happily married for 49 years, but have been a widower since 2008. I cared at home for my wife as she declined with a mystery lung fibrosis. She was on oxygen 4 years, almost housebound the last 3.
I have 3 children and 7 grandchildren, most living about 90 miles away. I see most of them most months.
My main interests include family, classical music [sell CDs], railways, walking, board games [invented several], industrial archaeology, maps, history, pet fish, UK holidays [haven't been overseas since 1994], humour [P G Wodehouse].
I live in a small town [15,000] close to the 200 mile Pembs Coast Path, in a detached house 500 yards from shops and services.
I drove a Renault Scenic, but in 2014 after 150,000 mies it packed up & manage with no car; I travelled more by train than car anyway.
My wife was a Librarian - house is full of books of all sorts, so a future partner must be a keen reader.
I am honest, sincere, loyal, easygoing, solvent [mortgage paid off 1971], careful with money - able to save comfortably on my present 2 pensions and other income. Good sense of humour; not a subtle personality - what you see is what you get, and a main failing is being unable to grasp female psychology and subtlety! I don't like change - have lived in only 2 houses in 59 years.
It's no fun doing things on your own; I'd like company with someone who shares some of my interests; she must be a non-smoker, and think I'm wonderful.
I am no longer looking for marriage, but have several platonic lady friends here and elsewhere, and there's room for a few more within 6 hours travelling time!.
About his ideal match
My ideal match is a widow, fit and active, reasonably attractive, likes reading, shares some of my interests, would be happy to live where I am, a non-smoker, and would think I am wonderful.
Of those, the most important are the last two!
Height, weight [within reason!], colour of eyes and hair are unimportant considerations.
[My late wife ticked few of the boxes in my 'ideal woman' list when I was young, but still proved irresistible].
