I am very shy and sometimes hard to get to know because of it, but once I am comfortable I hope I will make you laugh. My sense of humour is wicked and can get me into trouble. I am a loyal and honest guy who will think of you before I think of me.

Separated for 9 months and have a beautiful daughter (2 years old) I am not looking for a mum for her, as she already has one (who she spends most time with)... but I am looking for a friend(s) for me (or maybe more - who knows) If we meet and don’t get on, we should be honest and admit it, life is far too short to be making enemies.

I like a drink or two but not really a clubber - 2 left feet and hopeless at dancing (even my daughter laughs at me) I like going for long walks and cycle rides especially exploring paths to see where they go and sometimes this gets me back to where I started. I like to wander along with my camera poised (I am a hobby snapper) I don’t take pictures of everything I see, if it doesn’t get my interest, it doesn’t get on my camera.

I am also happy in front of the TV, as long I have something good to watch (film or TV programme), something nice to drink, and someone nice to be with. Typical guy, though – I do like watching sport.

I listen to most music, some embarrassing some not so. If it gets into my head and I sing it to myself, chances are I’ll like it.

I’ve written a lot it seems and probably have nothing left should we ever meet but why not take a chance and send me a message or reply to one I have sent to you.

be spontaneous, meet in a café, coffee bar or pub, have an easy conversation and if we like each other then arrange to meet again to have something to eat – or go somewhere there and then if we are hungry
