In Her Own Words
About her
I think I'm a bit like a 'mixtape' - remember those?
I'm spontaneous, sometimes playful or surprising but also gentle and thoughtful - and I'll definitely make you smile...I have many sides and facets which I hope you will find intriguing and fun.
I'm a bit of a History geek and have a passion for World War I and the Elizabethans; I love architecture and 'secret' city walks whether in London or further afield - Paris is a particular favourite - and am looking for an equally curious partner to join me in this.
I have a wonderful family with two grown-up children whom I adore. I love travelling - a highlight was managing to see a three-hour Northern Lights show in Norway which was incredible. I’m very into music and listen to all sorts from Sam Smith and Stevie Nicks to Rutter and Tavener. And there’s nothing I like better than playing the piano on dark winter days to lift the soul.
Theatre, film, live gigs and art are also passions of mine. I keep fit with the gym (this can definitely be a chore), yoga and walking. I’m a bit of a romantic at heart and am just as comfortable watching the new Alien film 'Romulus' (thrilling by the way) as I am with a romcom like When Harry Met Sally.
Having had two fulfilling careers, one teaching truculent teenagers English and History (someone has to do it) and second in newspaper journalism, I took early retirement and thought about this for quite a while before deciding to take the plunge.
Who knows, maybe if you press the 'play' button and start that cassette, we'll listen to the soundtracks of our lives together?
About her ideal match
I’d like to start a new chapter with a man who makes me laugh like a drain but has a deep side too. You'll be kind, loyal, compassionate, genuine and great fun.
I hope you will be passionate, warm and tactile with a curiosity about the world around us.
A desire to travel and explore is a must, road trips need planning!
I would hope you'll take care of your appearance and flash a winning smile.
Not really into lots of body art or piercings nor a guy who isn't open to trying new things.
