In Her Own Words
About her
I’m a warm, intelligent and kind woman - positive, good company, often funny and sometimes serious. I lead a full busy life - that just lacks a good man to share and add new ingredients.
I live in some comfort in the countryside near the beautiful Norfolk coast with my Terrier🐕 . I have many good friends and enjoy entertaining , eating out, pubs, good food and wine,music,travel at home and abroad to unspoilt places and cities. The outdoors , walking, gardening, reading in front of the woodburner.
Im a retired journalist, born, lived and worked in London for most of my life on magazines and newspapers but my marriage was always more important than my career. ( No
I don’t work anymore or write about online dating)
Widely travelled for leisure- Italy and Africa particular favourites . Love Norfolk but dip into London and Cambridge sometimes for culture stuff.
I’ve written a non- fiction book, and volunteer at Citizens Advice and local Wildlife Trust which I really enjoy .
I’m told I look and act younger than my years , a homemaker, I’m fit, energetic , no baggage just history and stories.
Widowed a while, keen to make the most of my life. I never had kids but would welcome being part of my partners family .
Love beautiful unspoilt places, wildlife,birdwatching,lively banter, following news and current affairs, film and music from Dire Straits to Nuttini, Motown and Puccini.
Hate arrogance , unfairness , racism 🙄
.( My pics all last couple of years )
About her ideal match
I am looking for a kind man with a good brain who adds something to my life as I will to his . A man who shares my values and some, but not all,of my interests - opposites can attract .
An Interesting,caring,affectionate communicator - who like me wants a lasting, equal monogamous partnership.
Perhaps a widower or semi -retired / retired man
with time to make a life together . A man I always fancy, want to talk to, have adventures with and also be silent and do nothing with 😉…
Hey,I don’t want to be too prescriptive - but someone who wants to enjoy the good life with a good woman at his side even if that means compromise on both sides. At our age we will both have strong ties to family / friends and places to be respected.
Non negotiables - smokers , Liz Truss or Nigel Farage fans or animal haters 😬
Hoping for a fun companion, who will always have my back as I will have his. I’m looking for a partner not serial dating.
If you’re interested let’s not text for long but talk on the phone and meet soon. I’m happy to meet halfway or in London or Cambridge.
Be brave and message,. I always reply and am neither rude or cruel. X
