By nature I'm rather introverted, but have learned to mask it with the art of conversation. I'm retired, spending my tine as a flaneur, walking, exploring London, the city and its suburbs, finding new places and old places, observing the people, watching the changing city, appreciating the seasons, plants and nature. I enjoy restaurants, pubs, trying new foods and beers. I cycle, visit art galleries, try a bit of creative writing. I volunteer in my local community. I read a lot. I like quizzes and puzzles, crosswords, puns, comedy. I love to joke and see the funny side of life.
