In Her Own Words
About her
Version 2.5.0: Ever the optimist.
Juvenile, feminine, cheeky, woman. Not seeking, nor offering perfection.
Rarely bored & love a challenge. Capable of doing nothing.
Retired from NHS and looking for people around my own age with whom I can feel comfortable, laugh a lot, go out, or stay in. Companionship.
There has to be a little spark and a big ability to communicate, but there really is no list of requirements, otherwise.
LIKES: laughter, silliness, wild weather, humility, all animals, live music, self-respect, trying to play golf, aircraft, bass-lines, compassion, intelligence, vocal harmony, affable geeks/nerds, beautiful, unspoilt Scottish (and other) countryside, people-watching, privacy, stand-up comedy, sunshine, articulacy, art, hens, raw talent, honesty, garlic, peace and quiet, olives, Radio 4, quizzes, hugs, looking at or being beside water, going out, open-mindedness, my own space, Top Secret Drum Corps, log-burners, Viz, handcrafts, humour, resourcefulness, Edinburgh, creativity, smell of tomato plants in a greenhouse, current affairs, interesting accents, playing the piano, hot fish & chips from the paper, travelling on a train, coming home...
DISLIKES: Vapes, football, bad manners, badly-bitten nails, political correctness, social-mediaphiles, fakery, brand-name snobbery, mobile-phone slaves and their loud-speaker calls, cruelty, poetry and that voice in which people recite it, politicians' incorrectness, global warming, litter-louts, road-rage, well-bitten nails, reality TV, conspiracy theorists, long lists...d'oh!...wait a second...
More country than town; more casual than formal; more flesh than bone, more traditional than modern, trying to be more future-facing than past.
Having said that, nothing is set in stone: our differences are good. I am up for new experiences and interests. Show me your world!

About her ideal match
I don't have an "ideal match". It genuinely comes down to feeling at ease with someone and enjoying their company. Only one way to find out.
