In Her Own Words
About her
'I love talking to you, grandson said as we walked back from the beach. 'You say such interesting things even if I don't always understand.' Friends find me sociable, on occasion gregarious though shyness may lurk beneath. I love the sea air - walking over the Tennyson downs on the Isle of Wight with wind blowing off the sea on both sides of the island. I currently live in London but rather long to share living in the country. My life revolves around culture, happy family. I swim out of doors nearly every day, sing in a choir, dance, walk. When alone or travelling far, I drop into a historic house, gallery or National Trust site - for architecture, interiors and walking over preferably gradually sloping hills. I used to sail and now would rather like to crew. Laughter is never far away, nor is discussion. I like to make the most of life, go to the theatre, concert, on special occasions to the ballet or opera. I value kindness, sharing and caring and dislike sarcasm/rudeness. I love beauty, can't bear ugliness. I hope I am jolly, caring - and long to share with a like-minded companion.
About her ideal match
Qualities I value in my ideal match: joie de vivre, keen to share interests, cultural, enjoyment of nature, family, kindness, sense of humour, curiosity, hopefully good health, financial stability.
What would make our relationship work: sharing in each other's pleasures, friends, colleagues, and joys in life, sense of humour, allowing each other time, feeling comfortable with their family and with their longstanding interests - also keen to explore, learn more, travel, make the most of life, have fun!
Activities: Galleries, travel, singing, dancing, fresh air activities, socialising, cooking together, entertaining, eating out together. Happy to retrieve my tennis racquet, ride horses again, or occasionally watch cricket. I used to love watching showjumping but realise that is a bit eccentric, though so beautiful - the Olympics commentary was incredibly gripping on the drive back from Gloucestershire almost to London. Really, shared activities - I'll happily share more.
(Deal breaker - lying, unkindness)
