In Her Own Words
About her
I am a creative attractive woman, looking for someone to share lifes' ups and downs with., and all the bits in between too! I am a very practical person and enjoy diy and gardening as well as going to galleries, the cinema and eating out - and I love cooking for friends. I really enjoy listening to music of all sorts, from Joni Mitchell to the Rolling Stones, classical, folk and blues, and a great night out would be a concert and meal with friends - or hopefully you.
I have two grown up daughters and work full time in the interior design world, but also do some creative work of my own and am working my way towards doing less work and more of the enjoyable options in life. I am a good listener, enjoy reading and pottering at car boots and antique fairs, and love to walk along the beach and pick up shells and stones. I am not particularly into sports but try to keep fit with walking, pilates and cycling to work. I belong to the National Trust and would like to go to as many properties as possible! I have lived and travelled in a number of countries and would like to spend more time exploring, both home and abroad.
I enjoy socialising but prefer a smaller group of friends to a large crowd, and do have a quietly wicked sense of humor when required! I can dress down in jeans and boots for a country walk but am equally at home dressed up for the theatre or a smart occasion- I like to think I have a bit of creative style!
About her ideal match
I would like to meet a man who is looking for a warm loving relationship, who can be kind and affectionate and is good at hugs!-a man who doesn't underestimate the power of holding hands and is not afraid to be tactile. It would be great to find someone who has similar interests, but I am also open to exploring new activities with a new companion.
It would be great to have someone to cook a meal and do some gardening with, but I also have an adventurous side - how about taking off for a last minute weekend in a campervan? Or going to a festival?
I am looking for a man who can be honest about his feelings and who is willing to be open to new possibilities. Who is as happy to spend the day curled up with a book , a bottle of wine and me as to spend the day exploring a country park with a picnic.
If you feel that I might be someone you would like to meet and perhaps get to know- and hopefully have that special connection with -please send me a message !
