In Her Own Words
About her
I'm quietly-spoken, laid-back and usually cheerful, except when faced with technology problems. I do have photos on this site but presume they're not visible without a profile photo, which I seem unable to add... I'm fairly reserved but enjoy the company of like-minded people, although I prefer muddy walks to parties, especially when in the company of my rescue dog. I'm addicted to Radio 4, Scandinavian TV dramas, fiddling with bubble wrap and getting lost in a book - I get twitchy if I don't have one within reach. I also watch, listen to and read way too much about current affairs and politics, resulting in a total personality change as I shout at the radio and scare the dog.
Above all, I'm hugely proud of my two wonderful grown-up daughters, one of whom moved to California to get away from my boasting. I have strong views on certain issues, from the environment and animal welfare to the dropping of litter and the misuse of apostrophes. I'm a committed Europhile, deeply distressed at the loss of my EU citizenship.
I'd love to exchange views, interests and passions with a thoughtful, intelligent, compassionate companion. Unless they take themselves too seriously, which is something I'm prone to as well, so am happy(ish!) to be laughed at while I clamber down from my high horse.....
About her ideal match
I'd love to find a companion who is cheerful, quiet and thoughtful - life-and-soul-of-the-party types scare me, as do exercise fanatics. I like unconventional people who don't value status or possessions, and don't worry about how others see them. An interest in what goes on in the world is important, as is a love of animals, a deep concern for the environment and a great smile (although there's nothing wrong with an occasional bout of Grumpy Old Man-ism). If you know a cure for technophobia that would be a bonus...
I hope you loathe conflict and argument as much as I do, unless the conflict involves a demonstration, a placard and concerns something about which you care passionately. Jeans and trainers win hands down over suits and ties - a boot-scraper and animal hair removers are the best accessories. As is a sense of the ridiculous, although if you find clowns funny we clearly live on different planets.....
