In Her Own Words
About her
I'm a spirited, sorted, solvent woman, comfortable in my own skin and with the life I lead. I like to keep busy and enjoy being outdoors as much as possible. I'd always rather read or listen to music than watch TV. Gogglebox I am not!
I enjoy walking my energetic spaniel (whatever the weather) and swimming.. My biggest passion is travel and I have a massive bucket list still to work through. It doesn't include Benidorm. It never will!
I also sing in a choir, which is the perfect way for me to unwind and I'm a church bell-ringer. Musically, I'm starting to feel like a bit of a dinosaur and I'm quite happy that way!
I live with my fabulous, bright 6th form student son, who keeps me grounded, young and active and will until he heads off to uni in the next couple of years. I hope he isn't a barrier.
He has a busy social life and as I've been single for over 7 years, it feels right now have time now to start building a new relationship.
About her ideal match
I don't have a particular 'type' or any preconceived notions of what I am looking for, except that I don't like tattoos, piercings and bad language, and I wouldn't date a smoker. I hope you are open to trying new things, are witty and interesting and enjoy excellent food and quality wine (but not gallons of it!). If you like rugby and travel we might get on well, if you like/have a (proper) dog, even better.
If what you've read strikes a chord or piques your interest, I'd love to hear from you.
