In Her Own Words
About her
I'm lively, energetic, fit and active, and told by my friends that I look a lot younger than my age!
I have a fun sense of humour, and am outgoing and friendly.
I enjoy photography, walking, hiking, fitness including yoga and also skiing, and more recently voluntary work and online French lessons to improve my O-level French!
I enjoy the arts, and am a frequent visitor to exhibitions and galleries in London.
Also theatre, cinema and live music.
Recently retired from my career in finance, I wish to travel more, including the UK, Europe, and further afield.
I enjoy and appreciate good food and wine, and especially when shared with that special partner I'm hoping to find, as well as with good friends.
I'm family orientated, and though not exclusively, enjoy spending time with my grown up children.
My friends say I am kind, loyal, honest, empathetic and caring, and these are definitely characteristics I am looking for!
If you like what you have read about me, then please do get in touch, as I would love to hear from you.
