In Her Own Words
About her
I’m hopeful I’ll find that one special friend and partner.
I am a kind and loyal friend, helpful, considerate, practical and creative. My friends say I’m young for my age - which is very kind!.
I’ve been lucky enough to live in the countryside all my life and love the peace and thinking space it provides. It also provides me an endless list of practical things which need doing - fortunately I enjoy having plenty to occupy me and prefer to be active.
The pandemic changed my direction and now my lifetime hobby is my job so I am often up to my elbows in clay and helping others with their pottery.
I am really enjoying gardening at the moment, learning the processes and the plants.
I’m an active person and would much prefer to be doing something than watching tv. I think that may just be single me though as it feels like it should be watched in company!
50 years of piano practice on and I’m probably only about grade 3 but I do find it relaxing. Currently no one has to suffer hearing me - so just mentioning ….
I have 2 terriers who enjoy taking me for walks. I also have a bike which I need the incentive of company and a pint at the pub to use. Shortish leisurely fair weather rides only - no Lycra for me! Terrier no.2 seems keen to join me on bike rides this summer. That’s the plan!
I do cook as I prefer proper and relatively heathy food but if I didn’t have to I certainly wouldn’t! I like a glass of wine or a nice beer.
I’m more comfortable socially in a small group than a large one and I’m pretty terrible at remembering names.
Sometimes I keep up with the dramas going on in the outside world and other times I just avoid news etc.
My family are my world.
About her ideal match
If you are my ideal match you will be intelligent, creative, kind and loyal. You will have a positive and practical outlook on life, most likely be one of life’s problem solvers and would like to share some of your precious time!
My perfect man would enjoy the outdoor life and the countryside and also have genuine passionate interests of his own. Hobbies and interests don’t need to be matched to mine- although if they do it’s all good too!
I would like to share country or coastal dog walks, leisurely bike rides or a gentle kayak, evenings and days out together or with friends, good conversation and getting to know you.
Still working or retired is fine by me although retirement is not on the horizon for me just yet.
My grown up children and grandson are the most important people in my world and I would hope that, if he has a family too, my ideal man feels exactly the same.
Health is important. I’m not looking for someone on a fitness mission but you must be reasonably fit and healthy ( for our age!) and care about your own health so we can look forward to sharing and enjoying the future together!
