In His Own Words
About him
Still active socially/business wise, fit - fast walk,cycle, row, sauna for 20 minutes each most days, kind, generous, romantic, good listener, caring/considerate person with sufficient income, Well traveled on business/pleasure. Spent 12 years (2002/2014) in Florida for 8/9 months each year. Have lived in Paris, New York, Kuwait, Delray Beach as well as La Herradura in Spain - where I had an avocado farm. Still love to cavort around the dance floor to the romantic Great American Song.Book with Rod Stewart.
Enjoy my own company, but would prefer someone to share my joie de vivre!!! I don't NEED someone but would LIKE someone.
My musical tastes vary from jazz to classical choral works (I was a Director of the Master Chorale of South Florida). A member of SCORE in America as I still email counsel..
Have held top corporate positions as a qualified banker, accountant and treasurer as well as involved in a couple of businesses - laboratory glass/chandelier (royal warrant holder) manufacturer as well as 13 care/nursing homes. In the 90's, managed $10 billion of Middle East oil money.
Well educated with a handful of degrees and Fellowships of professional organisations, although definitely not an academic.
I do have a passion for collecting. Currently collecting industrial art aka Lowry and signed studio/art glass aka Dale Chihuly..
However, basically a simple guy that life has been very kind to in relationships,jobs and money for which I am eternally grateful. By the way, I always kept my relationships alive by having a date with my wife/partner at least once a fortnight with roses and a good dinner out.
I have lied about my age (apologies) as I am 84, the photo was taken three years ago (the younger one six years ago). I have only changed a little since. The reason is that what lady in her right mind would search for a guy in his 80's as most are passed it. I am not passed it both physically and mentally. So, if you are into older (much older) men who can still make it, then, I am your man.
About his ideal match
Similar to me but should be someone with whom one can have an intelligent conversation and who is financially comfortable. Also, a lady who would "like" a companion not "need" one.
