In Her Own Words
About her
As a freelance children's writer, i have had an eclectic work life - from running my own catering company to working with street youth. No matter what the work - success boils down to interpersonal skills and attitude. So... with a divorce well be behind me, it's time to follow my heart, and find someone who'd like to join me on life's quirky adventures. No-one can claim to be completely baggage free - but luckily mine is safely stowed.
What I can offer is - a sense of fun - loyalty- intelligence coupled with curiosity - compassion - a degree of independence, but a desire to share.
I am looking for someone who is comfortable in themselves - who misses a woman's perspective, touch and laughter. Someone who is free to start anew and misses sharing their lives with someone special.
I currently divide my time between Canada and Alton Hampshire.
About her ideal match
If you like.... classical music - thought provoking movies - getting nostalgic over 60's music - taking a 'magical mystery tour' on a rainy Sunday - the smell of cinnamon buns cooking in the oven- labrador pups - debating current affairs over a strong cup of java-
Holding hands in the movies - sitting in silence on a seaside hilltop - swimming in an isolated bay - teaching me golf ( as long as i promise not to take it up as a hobby and follow you to golf games.)
If a day pottering in the garden - or watching some good TV doesn't bore you - but a day in a Marakesh market excites....
If you're willing to bring me up to speed with - the latest techie gadgets and happy for me to show you the trick of making a nifty curry...
If you'd like to tell of your life adventures thus far and would like to hear mine...
And lastly ... if your family is more important to you than what you own or do for a living.... then.....I'd love to hear from you.
