Became a naturist in my mid fifties, having only done occasional skin-dipping before. Wife is a naturist but her skin doesn't take the sun so well and she's less keen. We're both Christians. Often I go on my own to naturist places. Would like company sometimes.

I scarcely know how to answer this. Own age/younger/older, women more than men but it's simply because I get on well with women. There is no sexual intent here. A number of people seem to have no profile. Like some others I find this hard to cope with and consequently I tend not to reply to requests when this is so.

Railways, classical music, languages, reading (the classics but also modern romances to keep in touch with modern society). Chatting to people - in all the modes - is something I do a lot. Beyond that lots of things too numerous to mention. I like quotes:- 1) If a man comes into your house and talks about how honest he is then it's time to start counting your spoons. (P.G. Wodehouse) 2) I'm not sending all those baskets up in one egg. (Winston Churchill - wartime quote) 3) The pig's making a dog of itself. (My own) 4) Let him who is without sin cast the first stone. (John 8:7) 5) Nothing too absurd can be said, that some philosopher has not said it. (Cicero) 6) Ecclesiastes 3 1-8 7) For the Fallen by Laurence Binyon (They grow not old ...) 8) No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. (Luke 9:62) 9) My strongest ambition is to be old! Look at the alternative. (My own) 10) Parents are supposed to be boring and consistent. It gives their children a sense of security! (My response when one of our then teenage children described a suggestion of mine as boring.) 11) Amigos y libros, pocos, buenos y bien conocidos. 12) I know we're running late, but you can relax. I'll drive like a maniac to get you there on time! (Modesty forbids)

Mozart, Handel, Puccini and any early music. Some 50s pop - I do consider Elvis and Lonnie Donegan great singers.rnI discovered recently that Mozart (my favourite composer by a long mile) composed the amazing number of 22 operas so I'm now on a quest to obtain recordings of the ones I haven't got.

Westerns and period dramas mainly but I'm not a great film buff. rnIf this title includes short cartoons films or DVDs then Shaun the Sheep.rnrnSince I read more than watch films, it would be nice to have a section entitled Reading or Favourite Books. One of mine is C.S. Lewis' The Screwtape Letters (one of the outstanding books of the 20th century). It is also produced as an audio book.

Somebody you've never heard of, a humble local squire who'd lost a foot in the war but still played cricket. In his late eighties, after a stroke, he appeared on a public platform to support a campaign against cuts in facilities in our small town.rnrnAlso someone you might have heard of - Sheila Nicholls.rnrnAlso Boris Becker " "Nobody died; I lost a tennis match.""rnrnAnd some you've certainly heard of - Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip. Also Queen Elizabeth I. And too, Anne Brontë. Also Abigail Wright, opera singer.
