In Her Own Words
About her
I am a warm, sociable person who loves nothing more than being surrounded by family, good food, fine wine and great friends enjoying casual, humorous and / or stimulating conversation.
I’m an avid theatre and concert goer and try to attend one or other at least once per month and have even been known to ' tread the boards ' for a local amateur operatic society myself, on a number of occasions. I also love to snuggle up to watch a box set, film, listen to music. Long country walks taking in a local hostelry or two are also a firm favourite with me and my gorgeous and very well trained pooch ( aged 9 ).
My taste in music is extremely eclectic and plays an enormous part in my life on a daily basis, from classical to some limited thrash metal. Music over TV for me every time. I am not a reality TV fan and am one of the few people it seems, who have never seen an episode of Love Island !
Often described as kind, direct, vivacious and funny, I am renown for my independent streak but have reached a time in my life, when want someone to share with me, what are sure to be our golden years.
I am looking for love, laughter and adventure with that special someone, willing to open up so that we can ‘share’ each other’s lives. Someone to accompany me on early morning winter walks and at the opposite end of the day, someone to sit with, watching a glorious sun set hand in hand with a nice glass of something, listening to our favourite tunes and someone to travel with.
My Gaelic complexion fares better in winter so my favourite type of day is a crisp, frosty, winter morning when everywhere appears coated in icing sugar under a dazzling winter sun.
I dislike rudeness and arrogance and surround myself with people who spread positivity and kindness. I’m too old to read between the lines and have no interest at all in casual hook ups.
My cup is half full so I’m looking for someone like minded to enjoy what life has left to offer but also, to help cope with life’s inevitable adversities. Better and stronger together.
About her ideal match
I long to meet someone with a strong personality and an infectious sense of fun, who is prepared to talk openly and honestly ( as I do ) without any offence being meant or taken.
Ideally, he will share some of my interests but also enjoy different hobbies that he is prepared to share with me. If he were happy to learn to ballroom or latin dance with me, all to the good.
Most of all, he should have his own views and opinions on matters, be assertive enough to impart them whilst at the same time, be willing to listen, consider and tolerate those of others.
He should be receptive to offering and receiving support from me in the event of the inevitable life challenges which beset us all from time to time. His ' cup half full ' approach to life, which mirrors mine, will hopefully serve us well and ensure that together, we can weather any storm.
Apologies in advance but smoking would be a deal breaker I'm afraid.
