In Her Own Words

About her

Widowed 17 years ago (where has the time gone?) and still missing intelligent male company. Not massively fussy, and prepared to compromise. Haveone son, who lives in Gloucs. Have been heavily involved in golf for many years but now no longer play. Enjoy bridge (usually Duplicate) and most types of music. Sadly, since moving further away from the Cambridgeshire. border,no longer attend regular classical concerts.Also miss not going to live theatre but do visit the cinema occasionally, and-have a fairly eclectic taste in TV and books.

Enjoy holidays - now mainly for winter sun abroad - and have travelled fairly extensively, with the exception of South America; Machu Pichu / Galapagos anyone?. Also lived for 5 years in S. Africa (where my husband's job took us), and fell in love with the animal andbird life there. Spent most holidays animal-watching, including one never-to-be forgotten week long canoeing safari down the Zambesi below the Kariba dam, spending the nights sleeping on small islands in the river and rapidly learning to have a healthy respect for the hippo! Would very much enjoy another safari type holiday.

More recently took my first small ship cruise to S E Asia, which included a side trip to Angkor Wat - magnificent! Also cruised on the Med, and early next year will be taking a month long cruise down the western coast of Africa to Morocco, Cape Verde islands, The Gambia and Senegal plus the Canaries and Madeira.

Have a fairly broad outlook on life, fun-loving with a good sense of humour and a strong sense of the ridiculous. Try to help others wherever I can, and have a keen sense of fair play.

Recently downsized from a village close to the Cambridgeshire border ( when my very large garden just got too unmanageable) and to be closer to very good friends.

Sadly, no longer a dog owner; had Beardies for very many years and miss their company.

About her ideal match

Looking for someone reasonably tall, with a smile that extends to the eyes - probably for me the most important feature of all.. A slightly off-the-wall sense of humour would help as would generosity of spirit. If you play bridge and/or enjoy classical music then whooppee we are half-way there!
