In Her Own Words
About her
One last leap of faith before I resign myself to singledom!
I love walks, beaches, good food, theatre, film, music, visiting historic places, sites, museums, galleries, festivals, antique shops etc. I've worked in many different roles, PA, TA, theatre director, caterer, so I guess I'm multi-skilled, but I'm always open to trying out new things.
I have a glass half full attitude and enjoy humorous banter. I'm still reasonably fit and enjoy regular walks and a weekly ballet class. I'd love to meet someone who enjoys life and all it offers. I want to travel and explore more of this beautiful world before I'm too old (!), and it would be more fun to share the experiences.
My family and friends are important to me. I have a reasonably full social life and I'm comfortable dressing up or down for any occasion. Friends say I 'scrub up well', which I think is a compliment 😉
About her ideal match
I'd like to meet someone who matches, compliments and stretches my mind; confident in their own skin.
A partner would be someone who is truthful, generous of spirit, willing to try new things and unafraid to wear their heart on their sleeve; a kindred spirit, happy to chat about anything and everything, in-depth, or frivolously, and yes, it would be lovely to find that indefinable spark/chemistry thing.
I have great appreciation of beautiful things but I do not need to possess them, so I'm not driven by money. I'm not interested in flash cars, big TV's, or the size of your bank balance, but you must be solvent, emotionally intelligent, articulate, kind, loyal, honest, caring and outgoing - an individual who enjoys social interaction, who wants to be going forward safe in the knowledge that you 'have each other's back'.

Deal breakers:
crudeness, bad manners, rotten teeth, smoking, poor personal hygiene, old photos of you and your dog and a huge ego!
