A widowed South Australian pensioner has turned to Gumtree to find a new friend who enjoys fishing.
The 75-year-old lives in a granny flat at Lewiston, and put an ad on the online classifieds site after a suggestion from a nurse, who cares for him.
His ad — which has had more than 15,000 views and captured hearts around the nation — features a selfie, and under “condition” Mr Johnstone lists himself as “used”.
“What I want is a fishing mate in a similar position to myself who also wants someone to go fishing with,” he wrote in the description.
Since putting up the add two weeks ago, Mr Johnstone has been inundated by more than 100 offers from people around Australia.
