In Her Own Words
About her
Why should you get to know me? Because I'll surprise you!
I believe in silver linings, being positive and proactive, and in maintaining high standards in how we treat one another. I believe in old fashioned values like honesty, integrity, kindness and compassion. I also believe in having lots of fun, finding humour in amongst the bleak forecasts, being creative and trying to solve problems with our future in mind, and cultivating curiosity and awe at the wonders of our world.
Ask my friends about me and they might warn you that ...
1) I made a fancy dress outfit from an old armchair,
2) My caravan door was on the wrong side so I borrowed a couple of trolley jacks ... and now it isn't,
3) When I tried to go on holiday to Anglesey, I ended up in Kenya, or
4) That it's not uncommon for me to talk gibberish.
Folk I admire include: Kevin McCloud, Monty Don, Isabella Beeton, Rosa Parks, Terry Pratchett, Shakespeare, Douglas Adams, Douglas Bader, Isambard Kingdom Brunel, Jackson Pollock, Barbara Hepworth, my Nan, Dr Who…you when you pluck up the courage to message me.
I am an Ex-IT Consultant, now looking for a more ethical, compassionate role in life.
About her ideal match
My ideal match will know Desiderata and consider it a great outlook on life. It's probably a no-brainer to you that your self-esteem and confidence come from you having decent morals and sticking to them. It would be wonderful if you have the skill to calming guide me back to earth when my errant brain goes off on one of it's creative splurges and distracts me from things that are more important. It would be even more amazing if sometimes we let our brains splurge together!
What Her Friends Say

Who is Lorna? What is Lorna? Hmmmm. Well, if you have a problem with your plumbing, she's your girl. If you need a screw or two, she's your girl again. You want an electrifying experience, call Lorna! She has an array of tools and tricks to die for. She's practical and can refit a kitchen including plumbing, wiring and cabinet building before you have time to eat your alphabetti spaghetti! Gives a whole new meaning to 'builder's bum'. And, when she's finished fitting the kitchen, she will delight with her amazing culinary skills. Her talents and interests are extensive. She's truly a multi-dimensional woman.
You'll be realising by now that Lorna is a capable and competent woman who doesn't need a man to change her fuse. Capable as she is, you'll never feel inferior. She has humility. She's caring though no pushover, determined with soft edges, creative, resourceful and generous in spirit and deed. She's curious and inquiring. Funny and humorous with a quick wit and a ready smile. She's a thinking man's woman. Oh, and she's a party animal! Sociable, gregarious, excited about life and the potential it presents. Lorna is an advert for a happy life and life, with her in it, will never be boring. She loves her dog, Jasmalinthing. Did I mention that's she quite a looker - little and bubbly, twinkly eyes and a cute little smile! Lorna's pretty good looking too!
