In His Own Words
About him
I’m originally from Newcastle, worked in a garage 7yrs, RAF 30yrs and Insurance Fraud Management 3yrs.
From 2005-21 I lived aboard various vessels, 32’ cruiser, 47’ Wide beam, 53’ Houseboat on a marina between Huntingdon and Sr Ives.
Loved the marine environment and the riverside walks and restaurants but now back on dry land. If you fancy a day out afloat, I’d be happy to show you how to steer the ship or, put you in charge of the Prosecco/ Champagne.
Took early retirement at 55 in May 14 and currently residing in Market Harborough
Recently joined a gym, prefer early morning swim as opposed to running or weight training.
I am fairly laid back and always look on the positive side of life.
I am a Jack of all trades when it comes to DIY, handy with a drill, good at removing spiders and if you have a garden, happy to mow your lawn, or trim your bush !
Obviously a sense of humour is a must with fun times guaranteed without getting too serious initially and if anything develops, happy to move forward in the relationship.
About his ideal match
Easy going, laid back with their own career and life style. It’s good to share common interests and anything new on the table would be a nice bonus.
Only negative preferences are non-smokers and non- English, coming from the North East I struggle with some English accents !
On the positive side, if the Chemistry is right, don't mind travelling for the right woman.
