In Her Own Words
About her
Well, I have a certain joie de vivre and a strong desire to explore foreign cities and walk up mountains. That sounds a little strenuous. I'm equally happy to sit and drink wine in a world music haunt in Camden Town. And I love going to the movies, even quite bad ones. If bad they're soon over. However books are another matter. One ropey sentence and I hurl them out the window. Very attached to radio 3. Not keen on Classic FM.
My children are all grown up and I've a little spare love left to bestow on a lovable person.
Vive la bagatelle ...
About her ideal match
My ideal man would have intelligence and wit and then for extra soaring happiness he'd sing and dance, play music on some instrument or other compatible with mine, and love history and good books, and with all that, not be too conceited. He'd play chess with just the right degree of native rat like cunning but not have read books on the subject or be a grand master. He'd prefer the open sea to a swimming pool and love the Mediterranean as much as I do. A classical guitar player who can sight read duets would be blissful. Does this sound too particular? Well I might add that such an unlikely sounding man would be nice to have even as a pal because among my many girl friends I'm not finding much in the way of guitar or chess playing.
