In Her Own Words
About her
I am an easy going, bubbly and a very sincere kind person. I live in London, enjoy diversity, but I am equally at home in the countryside.
If you are looking for a "labels, heels & handbags girl" that's not really me! However I can glam up very nicely and do take pride in my day to day appearance.
To simplify things; I 'enjoy' - Dogs better than cats, rugby better than football, outdoor better than indoor, Mountains better than fields, skiing better than snow boarding, Danish drama better the UK Soaps, sharing better than selfishness, diversity better than parochial, rock better than pop. Home cooked supper better than ready meals, Love handles better than beer bellies, Etc
I work full time, working shifts, have teenage boy at home, plus dog so time for myself is still not that easy to come by, but definitely bit by bit improving. I'm sure the right minded person understands that hands on parenting and keeping a roof over ones head is real life and not a part time activity. Looking forward hopefully to a time when I am able to explore the world again, visit exhibitions, and disappear on long weekends away etc.
I bicycle to work most days, and go on long vigorous walks with my dog. Just started to do yoga which I hope to make a way of life. I'm not a great fan of the gym environment but understand exercise is essential so that is often the only option. If I lived in a more temperate out door part of the world my gym would be sea canoeing or exploring some peaks.
Though politics is not my bag - huge egos and people with limited experience of the real world I am of liberal leaning. My background is public/private school (parents of upper middle class UK heritage) I am able to have a foot in all camps.
Yes I am 'curvaceous' and I never will be a string bean. .... but often referred to as 'sexy', as have been given by my genes certain assets in this regard! They are to be enjoyed!
About her ideal match
Essentially in a one quick sentence; "A solid and strong minded outgoing man, who is kind, honest and fun good bloke"
This part is often filled with statements like ' Someone special to fill my life" which is ever so sweet but rather ambiguous. So of you are ok with just a little bit more detail...... here goes.....
Mainly someone who is fun and jolly company, and enjoys being sociable, who has interesting things to talk about. Someone who is family orientated, and understands how a happy home should work. Someone who really does enjoy having dogs in their home.
Even though I have ended up living in town all my adult life now I mainly feel more attracted to the men whose life/ background are outside of 'Surburbia' so someone who is more the rugged sticks type or a central London type, as both have their 'extremes'! I hope you get my gist!!
