In Her Own Words
About her
Warm, kind, loyal, generous, fun, articulate, patient with feet on the ground. I am easy going and have a wicked sense of humour. Reliable in company. I have three grown up children, a full time job, a car that starts, am not needy, I like my own space sometimes and respect that in others.
If I am to be honest here and not trot out a whole skip load of cliches and half truths of how one used to be read on.
My idea of a nightmare holiday is anything related to danger, so skiing, white water rafting, hang gliding, bungee jumping, scuba diving do not move me. I also don't much care for stomping about on long, pointless walks, happily I live in a world where motorised transport has been invented. I don't mind a stroll along the prom or a gentle perambulation to a local beauty spot or (cliche alert) cosy hostelry!
I love watching all sport and am very happy to attend a rugby match, cheer on the hockey team, have an afternoon at a kart meet or a motorsport club day. I also enjoy the arts, a live show, museums and history generally.
I'm very gentle, or maybe a coward, but I don't like horror films, or anything that involves gratuitous violence, perversely I adore disaster movies. If they involve terrible acting and cranky effects even better. I don't like rom coms, like isn't like that, and more often than not there's not a happy ending. I also like a good old skool murder mystery.
My hobbies include recycling furniture and gardening. I'd like to go to more West End shows, however, rocking up alone looks a bit sad!
There an honest snapshot of me. My pic is probably five years old, as I don't have a portrait in the attic, I have aged, like we all do! I'm happy to provide present situation if asked.
If you have read this far you have my every admiration so I thank you for your tenacity and bid you a fond farewell.
About her ideal match
No shopping list so nothing set in stone. I try not to judge a book by the cover; although human nature dictates that chemistry is important. Someone outgoing with a sense of humour and the desire to still be a little crazy sometimes. I like being treated like a woman; I appreciate doors being opened for me and a reassuring hand at my back. Actually, the answer to my ideal match is, I'll know when it happens.
