In Her Own Words
About her
I'm kind, warm and friendly with a dry sense of humour. I love the coast and the sea but equally enjoy exploring towns and cities,. I enjoy walking, car boot sales and auctions and have a passion for books and have recently retired from running my own second-hand bookshop. I like gardening and cooking too. I like most genres of music from Bach to Black Sabbath and play a couple of instruments. Opera unfortunately just doesn't "do" it for me but I never say never. I enjoy travel and am a Europhile. I like meeting and talking to friends for a drink and I'm a positive person who believes it will all be o.k in the end, and if it's not o.k. then it's not the end.......
About her ideal match
Someone who obviously shares some of the same interests,but compromise and a flexible attitude to others is part of who I am. There needs to be that vital spark,but good friends is a fine place to start.
Kindness and good manners are qualities I value along with honesty and integrity.
I detest smoking/vaping.
