I like live music, the real thing, tribute bands or just a couple with a guitar singing folk songs whatever. Trying to teach myself to play at the moment - better than I was but not quite ready for that world tour. Draw a lot, mainly computer art, fantasy pics, nothing tacky. Love the great outdoors, do a lot of camping with the scouts, love reading and photography (I'm one of the few left who still uses REAL film lol)
Love any sort of music apart from jazz and Billie Holiday type blues - I find it too depressing.
As soon as the house is sold and my darling ex gets all thats coming to her(lol) I shall be buying a motorhome so travel and holidays are sorted heheheehe.
Want a LADY not a ladette, someone soft and warm for whom holding hands, and cuddling are just as important as anything else. A lady who appreciates that just sitting holding hands in silence watching a sunset (or a sunrise) is enough without the need for words. Talking of words, I write poetry as well....

Stop and take a breath awhile and rest your weary feet
Consider who’s behind the face, a friend you’ve yet to meet?
For beauty is a transient thing, ethereal and unreal
It’s in the eye, subjective, the true self does reveal
When skin deep beauty’s peeled away, the inner self exposed
A picture simply can’t reveal the perfume of a rose
It cannot show the sound of joy, the colour of the wind
The touch of red, the smell of blue, the taste or feel of green
So stop and take a breath awhile, don’t rush away just yet
For nothing’s sadder than there be a friend you never met.

The first date would have to be safety first - I can look after myself but there are some nasties out there I know that. Your choice of location, probably just coffee, something that we can call a halt to if we don't get on or can extend for as long as we like.
