In Her Own Words
About her
Greetings. It is a truth universally acknowledged that dating sites are hell!
If I had to select four words to describe myself, I’d choose quirky, old-fashioned and darkly witty.
I enjoy strolling through the local area, immersing myself in nature; stargazing and waiting for comets; dining out with friends and debating historical conundrums.
Currently, I am making my way through some idiosyncratic Life Goals. I’ve visited all the counties in England, been on a Segway (scary but fun), attended a Tudor Banquet and am currently reading all the books on the BBC 100 Good Reads list (7 to go). My favourite item is staying in quirky places. Up to now, I’ve stayed in a castle, treehouse, train carriage and UFO! Where would you like to stay?
Things I like:
history
list ticking
Good Omens
cider
Apostrophes
I’m looking for someone who will put us first (sorry, not interested in your grandkids), is ready to enjoy all that this world can offer and (apparently) appreciates the overuse of brackets.
If you think we could create beautiful memories together, feel free to message me.
About her ideal match
Someone to be romantic with and to enjoy the sunsets. That certain lady who enjoys travelling, dining and sauntering through highways and byways, or possibly through a wildflower meadow. In the evenings, someone to snuggle up with while we watch classic TV or a film or read our books.
It is especially important that you are free of huge family commitments. I'm sorry but I'm really not interested in your grandkids coming round.
Apostrophe abuse is my deal breaker!
