In Her Own Words
About her
How would my friends describe me…….
Resilient.
In 2016 my husband of 30yrs died. In 2020 my partner and husband of not long at all was also given a diagnosis that no one wants to hear and he also left.
Bloody but unbowed I am now enjoying life more and more and it certainly helps to have an irreverent sometimes macabre sense of humour.
I love to dance to a good groove, soul, Latin jazz, funk. I’m an inveterate visual artist, sewing, painting, collaging in my new studio, applying to open exhibitions and selling through my sisters shop. I consider myself stylish and love good quality so with my budget and ethics most of my clothes are from charity shops and on a Sunday there’s nothing like a boot fair followed by Sunday dinner.
Cooking isn’t my greatest gift but I’m a willing sous chef, happy to help, love to eat and have a good appetite!
I’ve been plant based since Christmas but don’t mind others chewing on a spare rib or two.
I’m a physical person and like to walk, bolder, climb, swim, play badminton, lie still and stare into the middle distance….ooo and kayak.
I like spontaneity and would happily set off on an adventure at the drop of a hat.
I am independent, resourceful, realistic,
loyal and loving.
I like to do the guardian quick crossword, play cards, play backgammon, drink Prosecco/gin and tonic/cider, not all in the same evening 😀
I relish conversation and debate.
I read fiction, love movies and can binge on a good box set, recently watching game of thrones, how brilliant was that!
There is so much in this world to do and enjoy, I am happy to journey on my own but wouldn’t it be fab to have a hand to hold.
