About Astonlocks
Astonlocks is widowed and is seeking females for a serious relationship.
My name is David, I was born in M'Tarfa, Malta my father was in the RAF. As a result of that our family managed to live in Singapore, Gibralta and Cyprus as well as several places in the UK. My mother hailed from Downton between Salisbury and the New Forest my fathers last posting was RAF Lyneham. I had passed my 11 plus and went to Calne Bentley Grammar School. The family lived in Calne for about three years and then moved to Redlands Chippenham. I have travelled a considerable amount both for work and leisure. I am very laid back, but do like to have a plan to work to. The lady of my life was diagnosed to have an esophageal cancer stage 3 to 4 the very day of the first Covid Lockdown the surgeons prognosis was she had 5 to 8 weeks to live, I cared for and looked after her for 14 1/2 months, this on its own very nearly broke me, but at the same time my mothers dementia had really accelerated, as soon as my partner had passed away I had to pick up the mantel care for my mum. When she passed away, I was beaten and exhausted so I had to do something radical I moved from Essex to Oswestry, bought an almost derelict Bungalow, the building is now to CO3/4 standard plus Solar Panels and battery storage the only improvement I can make is triple glazing. But the inside needs a womans touch and presence. Finding that special person appears much harder task than when I was young, I have many very fond memories of the past and hope to add more for the future. There is much more as I have led a very interesting life so far. Perhaps you would like to find out.
