In Her Own Words
About her
Like most others I’ve found writing a profile quite a challenge, how to portray the essence of who you are in a few short sentences? What follows is a flavour, a thumbnail portrait:
I consider myself articulate, calm, kind, thoughtful, and fun. I usually make people laugh - mainly recounting my zany exploits
I love travel (don’t let it define me though) especially when I can get an insight into different cultures. I also like the occasional fly and flop breaks, nothing like the sun for recharging the batteries.
I like galleries, theatre, ballet, films, eating out, singing, reading, all the usual stuff.
I’m pretty much glass half full; don’t sweat the small stuff and try to take a pragmatic approach to the challenges of life.
I enjoy being outside ( I try to spend time outside even in the cold) and am equally happy walking over hills, lazing on a beach, getting to know new cities, watching the colours change in my lovely garden at dusk. Am happy wandering round markets, antique fairs, gardens.
I’m interested in the world and keep abreast of current affairs. I listen to Radio 4 and also read a lot- mainly novels though and like to get other views on what I’ve read.
I have three amazing grown up (allegedly) children and four grandchildren, we get together as much as we can.
I value fairness, integrity and honesty.
Im into fitness; yoga, gym, walking, taking care of my garden. I make a mean G&T, love dark chocolate, decent coffee. espresso martini …
Oh and should say I’m not really into dogs, don’t dislike them but never been in love with one, the only dependants I have are a couple of dozen tadpoles in a tiny pond.
I don’t like rudeness, conflict, arrogance or in fact writing about myself but hope this is enough to create some interest.
About her ideal match
I don’t have an ideal match, looking for someone who shares my values and who takes care of himself physically, emotionally and spiritually.
I’d like to meet someone who is adventurous and open to new experiences
