In Her Own Words
About her
I am reasonably outgoing - love most sport and in particular I play tennis and ski in the winter (although perhaps not as energetically these days!) I enjoy walking. I sing in a choir and enjoy listening to classical music - in fact, any type of music apart from heavy metal and loud rock. I have been learning to play bridge for about four years which is a challenge but addictive!
I like to spend time with my family and my friends, and really enjoy being with them over a good meal and a glass or two. I have always loved cooking and would enjoy sharing this pastime. I love the buzz of being in Brighton - it is so diverse and interesting plus we enjoy some wonderful weather and amazing sunsets. Having the sea and Downs on the doorstep is an added bonus. I like to travel and although there are plenty of countries on the list to visit I enjoy France and would like to explore more of Italy. Gardening and reading are my other hobbies as well as visiting the cinema and theatre (including the opera and ballet). I appreciate art and like going to galleries although my skills in this area are non-existent. I try to be positive and love to laugh and I don't mean one liners or stand up comics. Like a lot of women I like to shop but these days it's more ToysR'us than chic boutiques!
I am kind, considerate, honest and a good listener.
About her ideal match
I would hope to meet someone who is educated, a good communicator and happy with where they are. I would like to share things together but equally be happy to do our own thing from time to time.
I like men who are happy taking the initiative without being over dominant. Most importantly someone with a good sense of humour.
