In Her Own Words
About her
Welcome to my profile!
A snapshot of me ...
I love a special 'someone' in my life, a chap to get to know, to enjoy, to snuggle up with.
Now the detail ..... I am practical, having come from more of a science background.
I'm a 'remain' gal with green convictions, though I respect others' views.
Friends would say I'm fun, and have 'personality', but I'm easy-going and a sympathetic listener, perhaps over a coffee, g+t or a zinfandel.
I'm retired, but I'm still busy volunteering in our village community. I'm well-travelled and adventurous, particularly west coast US where my younger son and family live; and wild Africa - I am just back from a solo safari to remote Zambia, the best wildlife-watching I know. Therefore the photos, very recent.
I have travelled alone on major holidays since I was widowed 9 years ago - needs must. But I do enjoy city breaks with my UK grandchildren, as they discover history, culture and technology.
Like your favorite car that's been around for a few years, I've got the odd dent or two, one or two replacement parts, new bulbs in my headlights, various joints replaced, not as fast as when in my prime. That's what you expect with wheels of a certain age; it's called character.
I would love to find that certain someone to share the joy of discovering hidden gems here in the UK and further afield.
I am passionate about wildlife, and about the state of the world, both environmentally and politically. I really enjoy photography, music & messing around with art, all at a lowly level. I play badminton (also at a lowly level) twice a week. And I love my red car 🚗 !
About her ideal match
To be my ideal man, you will be an honest moral practical chap; that's what really matters. Hopefully a chap who remains committed to the benefits of cooperation and votes accordingly.
I guess you'll be past your super-active sporting days, but a slower pace gives you more time to enjoy the finer aspects of life.
I'd prefer you to be a widower and family man, living not too far away, so it's easy to meet up.
Most of all I'd love a chap in my life to share the fun of outings and holidays, and candlelit meals over that bottle of fine wine, making plans for our next adventure together. I'm not looking to share your life; we both need a degree of space. A friend who is a chap, then let's see what happens .........
Thanks for reading!
