In His Own Words
About him
Where does one start describing oneself, slightly embarrassing to put this into words but here goes…. I consider myself to be kind, caring, considerate, respectful, empathetic, tolerant, courteous, loving, trusting, honest, polite, hate controversy & arrogance, well spoken, & a good listener. Full head of hair, not dyed. Hope to amuse and make the most of life. Have come to terms with becoming a widower coming up to 2 years ago. Active outdoors with land in the New Forest with stables. Self employed since 1996 essentially in magazine publishing then internet publishing with classic & vintage cars since 1977, including working with an international London based auction house, classic & vintage cars also a hobby with several classic & vintage cars since 1975. Run a classic car sales broking business since 2015. Grew up with sailing in Poole harbour, and spent many holidays sailing. Plan to purchase another boat. Enjoy walking lovely black Labrador and now only have one chicken. Enjoy good food, eating out, theatre (just seen Stephen Fry, London West End Theatre), film, point to point, events, weekends away, concerts, recently seen Santana at the 02, and Ozzie Pink Floyd tribute. I know London well as I lived there for 15 years until 1989, enjoy visiting London. Love engaging conversation including business, politics, current affairs the arts, hobbies, travel not necessarily in this order. Have bolt hole on Isle of Wight. I am open to other activities & interests you will no doubt have. Photos taken in 2025, no fibbing, at “The Pig” hotel - that’s not my stuffed bird.
About his ideal match
Would like to meet happy, confident, amusing, self-starter, maybe own business, not minding being independent at times, me not being overly needy and certainly not all the time if you understand me. Like food, eating out, outdoor activities, events, film, theatre, concerts, hobbies, etc. I’m sure there’s much more you are interested in - I’m a good listener!
