In Her Own Words
About her
After many years of school runs and home commitments I now find myself with more time to myself and the opportunity to pursue some of my own heart's desires! I keep fit and lead an active lifestyle. I play tennis , horseride, swim in the sea ( in summer) and do spin classes regularly , walk the dogs, generally on the move a lot.
I do some voluntary work, art classes, enjoy going to the theatre in Bath regularly and keep busy.
I cook reasonably well and prefer to eat at friends' houses rather than in restaurants. Am happier picnicking on the beach than dressed up in a smart restaurant or pubs.
I don't wear much make up and am mostly in jeans but can scrub up if the situation demands!
I think my friends would describe me as generous and a good loyal friend. I have a lot of good friends and they are very important to me.
My outlook on life is optimistic and positive. I love travelling, have travelled and worked abroad in the past in conservation and look forward to doing more.
About her ideal match
Intelligent, adventurous, kind, relaxed, a bit scruffy, fun, witty and happy with themselves. Hate pretensions or pettiness. Someone generous and affectionate. Physically fit and active.
Hope this isn't too much of a tall order!
