Hello. Thanks for taking a look at this. I'm a quiet, thoughtful person, looking for someone similar to explore life with. I'm curious about all sorts of things, intellectual, but someone who likes to help others and who thinks old fashioned courtesy and respect are far from dead. I seem to be the one people turn to for support and help.
I'm particularly enthusiastic about the natural world and all the wonderful things in it, and enjoy walking, exploring new places, and learning new things. Just back from a wildlife holiday in Shetland, and feeling a bit bereft (I wonder if I could retire to a Scottish island...? Not yet, at any rate!) I'm interested in the arts too, especially classical music, which I can't live without, but I'm curious about most things.
Other things about me you might like to know: I don't drink alcohol at all, but drink far too much tea! I love talking with people and I'm full of fascinating but often useless information. I enjoy good food, either eating out, or cooking my own, even baking my own bread. I love going out for walks on the beach early on Sundays when its quiet. I listen to Radio 4 a lot, and laugh out loud at the News Quiz and I'm sorry I haven't a Clue (perhaps I shouldn't admit that, but it is true!).
I hope to find someone to share with, whether that's sharing interests, conversation, good food, days out, holidays or life. I hope you're curious about the world, thoughtful and compassionate, patient, kind, someone I can communicate with and enjoy time with. Must be honest as mutual trust is crucial. Intellectually curious helps too.
