About me

I'm a retired Mining Project Manager. I live in Brisbane and love to travel around this beautiful country whenever I can.
I love good food, good wine and good company,
I'm a terrible fisherman, but I persevere nonetheless.
My family have all grown up and flown the coop, this allows me to come and go pretty much as I please, and travel where I want to go, except when Grandpa duties are required.
I would be nice to meet someone who has similar interests as myself who would enjoy visiting new exciting destinations and meeting interesting people along the way. I'm healthy, secure and comfortable with my lot in life. All that's missing is that special someone. I'm a very genuine sort of guy that looks at things as half cup full, not half empty. As they say, we're only here for a short time so I think you should try to jam as much into as you can while you can.

Things I like

Interests:

Travelling around this great country, enjoying nature and soaking up all the magnificent coastlines and the bush. Cruising (Covid permitting) . I enjoy visiting art galleries, museums and other points of interest, particularly in out of the way places.
Music:
Usually something I can sing along with, no doof doof !
Reading:
Andy McNab, Chris Ryan type of action books
Movies/TV:
I love a good cinema movie, I don't watch a lot of TV except for the news and footy games.
Food/dining:
I enjoy dining out from pub meals to top end restaurants to camp fire cooking and everything in between.
Sports/fitness:
I'm reasonably fit and healthy, I played a lot of footy over the years and coached junior footy with my boys as they were growing up.
I love cycling, swimming, bush walking, and letting my daughters' dog take me for a walk anywhere he wants to go (62 kg Rotti)

Description:
Someone who is easy going, likes the nice things in life and would love to visit and explore new destinations, both here and overseas. You should have a great sense of humour and be able to keep me in check as required.
My family advise me that I have no sense of style, colour or fashion, it would be great if you had some or all of those attributes that I apparently lack .
