In Her Own Words

About her

I feel very fortunate in so many ways dividing my life between rural Italy and the borders of Wales. Idyllic I hear you say And so it is. It has taken me five years to find an equilibrium after my husband and best friend died. So now I think it would be so lovely to find a special person with whom to share experiences .
I like to think that I am friendly, kind and warm-hearted, those are certainly qualities I value in others, along with a sense of fun and an ability to laugh at the absurdity of life. Through the years I have learnt to develop resilience but I remain an incurable optimist and hope that the next chapter will be the happiest of all.

My degree was in art and I like being around bright, quick-witted people but would say that my tastes are fairly "middle brow". I enjoy the hurly burly of family life, friends, conversation, laughter, cooking, books, animals (especially dogs), walking, nature, gardens, theatre, history, exhibitions,Radio 4 and music of various kinds

I set up and ran a successful small textile business which I have now handed over to my son. The business gave me many opportunities to travel the world and so I am not timid when it comes to travelling alone. At that time travel was a whirl of airports that all looked the same and now I think it would be nice to do it another way and maybe to share it with a friend.
Having a cosy, welcoming home is important to me and I am at my happiest when a few of my favourite people are gathered around the kitchen table. Other random things which make my spirits soar Walks through the beautiful Welsh countryside, log fires and a good book, July shooting stars in Italy,Evensong in an ancient cathedral, swimming midwinter in the hot springs of southern Tuscany.

About her ideal match

My ideal match would be bright, kind and funny, someone who has retained a sense of wonder and enthusiasm for life. Integrity, honesty and generosity of spirit are very important to me, .Friendship has to come before anything else, along with trust and respect, but a little mutual pulse racing is essential if things are to progress ...

I do not much care for arrogance, flashiness or bad manners and probably wouldn't hit it off with anyone who disliked animals.

In some ways I relish my independence and particularly, at this stage in life, that sense of so much possibility in the air ... But I am cheered by stories of late flowering love and have a lot to give so will keep an open heart and mind ...
