In Her Own Words
About her
What sort of person am I? Thoughtful, a good listener, reliable, very honest and trustworthy, sometimes extrovert, but not always.
I was brought up in East Anglia and moved to Oxfordshire for my job, which is a still a big part of my life and who I am. Retirement beckons - there is much more to life than work and I like to keep busy outside work. I enjoy being in the countryside or by the sea, and taking long walks, preferably with a dog for company.
I ski in France every year (if possible) and have enjoyed exploring lots of other countries, especially Sri Lanka and India. For me travel is about getting to know the people and their culture - not just lying on a beach, although there should be some time for chilling too.
Back at home, I love old houses and gardens and have a flair for house renovation and DIY. I'm quite handy with a power screwdriver!
I love eating good food and drinking great wine. Most importantly I like my food and wine to be accompanied by lively, intelligent, funny conversation.
Of course if the opportunity arises then I will dance the night away with my friends. I'm great at modern jive, terrible at Karaoke.
I am also interested in history, art, and architecture, although by no means an expert. I enjoy live music and theatre.
Keeping fit and healthy is important to me, but I'm not fanatical about any particular sport. Taking part and having fun is more important than winning. I do Park Run and outdoor circuits.
I'm willing to try new things and looking forward to new adventures.
About her ideal match
I'm looking for a man who is intelligent, confident and sociable, but relaxed, funny, caring and thoughtful. I hope to find someone who shares my love of food and wine, conversation (and conservation), the outdoors, travel and exploration.
Must love life (ideally love dogs as well)!
