In Her Own Words
About her
Looking to embrace the next stage of life and find a like-minded special someone to share a large part of it with.
I am fortunate enough to have enjoyed a fulfilling career, travelling extensively for both business and pleasure. This has included working and living in Beijing for 17 months, an experience I shall always treasure. More recently, I have been working part time occasionally, as a freelance business consultant. My last contract was a dream role working from home for a charitable cause, linked to one of my passions (rugby).
My increasingly retired lifestyle allows me to enjoy my regular gym classes, and dog walking with friends, as well as regular trips to warmer climes - my last one being in December 2019 to the Dubai rugby 7's, although The Bodyholiday in St Lucia has become my favourite holiday destination. I love entertaining (my cooking has been much admired), and one of my favourite ways to spend a Saturday evening is having friends round for dinner followed by a game of Mah Jong or Settlers of Catan [not that I'm competitive of course...much ;-) ]
I'm also proud to be part of an ensemble choir that has put on some amazing public performances, including some poignant online performances during the Covid era.
If you can see yourself watching those amazing Caribbean sunsets with me, or finding our way together on a country walk with a welcoming pub at the end, or having dinner and a games night with friends, or sharing weekends away to watch my, (our even your), favourite rugby team, then you had better get in touch!
I am open to freeing up time for new adventures and experiences too- especially if they involve the great outdoors ..... and good company. What are your passions?
My profile photo was taken in July 2019.
About her ideal match
Initially, my ideal match would be someone who looks after himself, is good company and shares not only my sense of humour (witty), but my values too (with honesty & respect topping the list).
He would have a good circle, (large or small), of friends with whom he is happy to involve me, and would be happy in the company of my friends.
Beyond that, my ideal match would be a good friend with the potential for more....
