In Her Own Words
About her
Wish I could say that I am like a good bottle of red that has improved with age! Instead, I like to think I have kept my shape and body but with perhaps a little sediment.
A passionate lover of the environment I have no need of city lights, just the starlight.
My loves are cooking and recently took up painting.
Not fond of the winter, but come alive in the sun when I can garden, grow vegetables and swim in my pool.
Moved to France in 2000 - best move of my life - I was single, footloose and fancy free and still am.
I'm terribly independent and will tackle most things around the house and garden, though plumbing I'd rather leave to the professionals.
My family has longevity - my mother of 97 lives with me in an adjoining house. She still loves to garden although has given up cooking for herself.
I have a small circle of friends and a larger one of acquaintances. Both French and English speakers. I avoid the latter who moved to France, still can't speak the language and complain about the French way of life!
I drone on about the environment and how we are wasting time setting it on the right path. I want an electric car, but can't afford one right now. I rarely eat red meat and love plant based food.
So, I am opinionated, outspoken and enjoy a good debate!
