- Description
- Hello.
I'm a retired Mental Health Social worker, married since 1975 with 2 Daughters, 3 Grandsons, a Grandaughter and a Step Grandaughter. My main hobby is making wooden toys from scratch, such as Doll's Houses and working Victorian Theatres etc. I also collect small antique curiosities. Retirement has provided me with that most precious of all commodities, time and I'm using it not only to broaden my horizons but also to enjoy discovering a second childhood.
I'm looking for a friend of either gender and similar age from the USA. I'm sure that although we share a common language and culture, there will be lots of differences that we could discuss simply by chatting about our everyday lives.
I think that the following few quotations sum up me and my philosophies :
- "We don't stop playing because we grow old. We grow old because we stop playing".
- "I wake up. I go to sleep. In between, I occupy myself as pleasantly as possible".
- "Life isn't a rehearsal, so treasure every moment".
- "Learn something new each day".
- "Try to be good, it makes life feel good".
If I haven't bored you by this point and if you think you'll be able to cope with my somewhat eccentric sense of humour, then please get in touch.
Best wishes,
from,
Paul.
