In Her Own Words
About her
I have a happy, cheerful personality. Enjoy talking to people from all walks of life. Although I was brought up in the UK (Hampshire), I wanted to see the world and was one of the last 'Ten Pound Poms' to sail off to Australia. I loved the life, the weather, the opportunities, just about everything really. I married far too young (21), brought my son up alone, a pleasure to me. Of course, whilst travelling my son met a lovely English girl and they are based here for the foreseeable future, with my two much loved grandchildren, 18 and 15. When I retired it seemed logical to retire here to be a part of my grandchildren's lives. Although I was based in the UK my mother was still in Australia so I was returning twice a year, in between being with my grandchildren as much as possible. My mother died in 2015, the grandchildren are young adults and suddenly my busy life isn't quite so busy.
I enjoy looking around junk shops rather than antique centres. Exploring the beautiful areas of the UK that I haven't seen, can't believe I haven't visited the Isle of Wight!!! Walking is my main hobby, on a beach is my first choice. Happy to walk in the countryside, ramble etc.
I enjoy going out for meals, visiting pubs, chatting generally, find most people of interest.
Other hobbies include gardening, reading, walking neighbour's dogs, dislike shopping, arrogant, rude or inconsiderate people.
Enjoy days with the family to the Battle Proms etc not the Reading Musical Festival!
Attention to personal grooming is important, along with decent teeth! I would love to expand my circle of friends, perhaps meeting someone special.
About her ideal match
My ideal guy would be interesting to talk to, considerate, well mannered. Social drinker, non smoker, enjoy travel, especially getting away during the winter months! Fairly fit etc.
Look after themselves and their home to a reasonable standard (!), be fairly comfortable money wise and definitely not tight fisted. I don't like meaness of spirit or finance.
I would want to get to know someone fairly well and feel comfortable with them before 'going to the next level'.
If all those likes/dislikes haven't put you off, I would love to hear from you!
