In Her Own Words
About her
First things first - I make very good chocolate brownies. I’m a bit shy to start with, but humorous, reasonably knowledgeable and with a deep well of random facts, so I can offer interesting conversation; also, honesty and a warm heart. I love chocolate, coffee, red wine (although not usually at the same time) and travel. I feel very lucky that my last holiday before Covid was a safari, something I had wanted to do for a long time. I have three children and two grandchildren who I love dearly. The photos are from last summer.
My interests include historic buildings, travel at home and abroad, gardening and tennis. I enjoy reading - books, newspapers, magazine articles. One of my favourite things is to go to the countryside with a dog, my hiking boots and hopefully a good companion - maybe you?
I dislike dishonesty, pretension and green peppers.
About her ideal match
I would like to meet a kind, articulate, humorous gentleman with whom to share time, interests, conversation and cake and, in due course hopefully, to travelling both in this country and abroad. And it might even lead on to us living happily ever after!
