In His Own Words
About him
I am a retired Managing and European Marketing Director having worked in Singapore, Germany and Switzerland, plus London, Leeds and Manchester in UK. I also served as a Secondary school governor and have always been active in my community.
Music has always been a big part of my life and previously I was a Drummer for a band in the late 60's early 70's.
I am proud to say I have never been in a betting shop or placed an online bet, drunk Coke, taken illegal drugs, or smoked cigarettes. I don't have any Tattoos and I'm a light user of social media!
I'm spiritual but not particularly Religious, as wars tend to be based on Religious beliefs. I seek justice and fair play.
I would love to meet a lady to accompany me to anything creative, artistic, and musical. Perhaps explore great places, and absorb nature together. The last chapter of life should always be the best!
After 55 years of driving I have decided to give up my car, and now let buses, coaches, trains and taxis take the strain, giving me more flexibility and freedom, whilst saving funds for great adventures and treats.
I have always been on time (or early) and am a Lark (mornings) rather than an Owl.
