In Her Own Words
About her
Creative, nurturing and well educated! I can be quite direct but I have a sideways sense of humour. I'm at a stage now where I'm looking at retirement options, loving time with friends, discovering new interests and rediscovering old
haunts. I love big landscapes ( I spent a week planting trees in the Highlands this summer), dog walking, wildlife and my garden: I have a small allotment too. I'm a keen movie goer and love a night out at the theatre though not necessarily a play. (Saw Grayson Perry last week and Robert Plant next week). Art lover and like going to the exhibitions (have a go myself from time to time) ; like to read and am a member of a book club where we actually read books and discuss them, although I'm more of a " Did you enjoy the book and why?" rather than dissecting the subtext line by line. I have done both Kite Festivals in Oxfordshire (not the windy one on the end of a string,) but ideas, politics, literature and music. Big fan of 'The Rest is Politics' podcasts.
Favourite things: lemon sherbets and chocolate raisins; the smell of wet dogs after a long winter walk;, a sucker for unusual plants; love mowing a lawn but hate ironing; Whitehouse and Mortimer: Gone Fishing.
About her ideal match
'Happy in my own skin' is a hackneyed phrase but it applies to where I am now and this is what I'm looking for in a partner. Everyone has baggage but it's how you deal with it that's important. Kindness is a must.
Someone who is interested in one or more of the following in the outdoors, plants and wild life, art, cinema, politics, friends and family. Politics is an ever present interest but Brexit and Johnson are 'no go' areas.)
If you can dance too then you're at the top of the list!
