In Her Own Words
About her
I enjoy inter alia, walks/hiking, the countryside, it's as beautiful in the winter as in the summer, horse riding, art galleries - I particularly enjoyed the exhibitions of Charles I and II in London last year. Also enjoy opera and ballet, and visiting European cities, particularly Italian ones - I visited Venice in September, and just over the Italian border, Rovinj in May. I also enjoy being at home, and of course spending time with my family. I like to laugh, humour and wit are important they light up the day. Recently retired, I'm looking forward to exploring my connections to the Clan MacLeod of Lewis, and listening to the wonderful Petroc Trelawny's Breakfast programme on R3 all the way through!

I haven't ventured far into Encounters, however I would hope for a meeting where there is an instant, warm rapport with easy humour, and a little frisson of optimism!
About her ideal match
Broadly someone who is kind, considerate to others, and honest, who is happy with his life and is looking forward to getting to know someone new, with mutual caring, and sharing of interests and experiences. And hopefully someone with whom at least some of the above resonates.
