In Her Own Words
About her
Well - I don't really do photographs but realised I needed some, so here you are. In addition to the current head-shots, there is one taken a few years ago with my cuz in King Tut's. (I'm on the left.)
Well, all my friends would say I'm 'different'. Not a a wild party animal nor a hermit. I am intelligent, articulate but most importantly, a good listener. I am very interested in meeting new people, though I am not extrovertly out going. I suppose I could say I am a country, not city person.
I love literature and music; from jazz to classical to folk and beyond. I also love theatre and cinema, combining both when I see National Theatre Live. I have recently returned to circle dancing, which I really enjoy (especially the Russian dances) and have started learning Italian, something I've always wanted to do. I'd also like to learn to ride: horses and motorbikes. Only been on a horse a couple of times but I was brought up with bikes (and pre-war cars) as my dad and uncle had a side-line in bringing beautiful old vehicles back to life.
I am an inventive and creative cook - I love Scandinavian, Indian and Italian food in particular; mainly vegetarian and fish, though I have been known to eat meat!.
I hate rudeness and unfairness; I can't see any good reason for such behaviour. I do like good manners and think it is very important to be kind.
I read a lot of books; mainly science fiction (anyone for William Gibson?), crime/mystery (from Margery Allingham and Josephine Tey to Reginald Hill, Peter Lovesey, Anne Cleeves and beyond). I read newspapers regularly, as I like to keep myself informed on political, scientific and business matters.
I used to row and run ( a few half marathons and the KIMM). I still love to be by water but a fast walk is all my knees will allow now! Still, I appreciate the birds and wildflowers more!
Finally, two confessions to make: I don't play golf and I'm a Geordie (of Scottish descent!). Oh yes - and I love cricket.
About her ideal match
I am looking for someone who enjoys good and intelligent conversation; someone with a lack of pretentiousness. If you enjoy cricket and Radio 4, so much the better!
I'd like to meet someone who is perceptive and thoughtful, who can see the funny side of life and takes enjoyment in living.
I'd like to take up backgammon again and begin the struggle with Go and its millions of moves - sigh.
I hope you don't like dressing up too much - never liked it (believe me, those frocks are hot and uncomfortable) and I'm unlikely to start now.
I think it's important to be curious and keep on learning (I'm a scientist by training) and to have both separate and shared activities.
