    Bebob, 51

    Glasgow

    I’m 51 years old, short, but regularly get told I look young for my age (the photos are a couple of years, and a few pounds out of date, but they are still me). I guess in some ways, I am still young at heart. I grew up in the 90s and have spent a lot of time in clubs and partying and that is no longer my thing. Looking for someone who wants to get to know me like I want to get to know them. I write; been working on a fantasy book for a couple of years. I like walks and the outdoors, pubs and restaurants, movies, art, theatre, sport, and being true to myself. Open to ideas and suggestions for things to do. I have bipolar disorder and have not been working for a year, so I can’t treat you in the style to which you might have become accustomed! But I’m honest, and romantic and looking for someone to cuddle. See you down the line.

Ayr seafront, the Burns Birthplace Museum in Alloway and the grounds of Culzean Castle are all accessible and make for relaxed outings.

Is it hard to get about Ayrshire with a disability?

Not on the coast, where trains and buses link the towns. Inland, a car or a taxi helps, and Blue Badge spaces are rarely hard to come by.
