In Her Own Words
About her
I've been happily on my own for some time, but have always had plenty of friends of both sexes. i really enjoy socialising but now feel I would like someone special in my life. I have had a very varied career - working in Military hospitals as an MOD Welfare Officer and also in the police - initially as a police officer but most recently in crime reduction. I love the camaraderie and humour of working in a team, particularly in organisations like the Services. Up until 2 years ago I was working for a Yacht company organising round the world yacht racing - loved the job and the stopovers in places like China and Uruguay. Now I'm working part time with military personnel and veterans - another job I love.
I belong to two choirs (choral) and love going to classical concerts. Also enjoy blues, jazz,- all music really. I'm a fair weather sailor - although I don't expect everyone to enjoy it. I moved to be by the sea a couple of years ago and go sailing when I can. I enjoy dancing, cinema and watching sport - particularly 6 nations and Wimbledon. I've also just started sea swimming - very cold in winter but exhilarating.
I have two adult sons - one a music teacher and the other in the Navy. See them as often as I can, as I do my five siblings - so it's a large family when we all get together.
Since the boys have left home, I've started travelling as much as I can and have been to several different countries over the past few years - particularly when the yachts came into port. I've never been on a cruise - they just don't appeal - but I'm willing to give anything a try.
Would love to meet someone who enjoys similar things and has a similar sense of humour - very important. Will somebody please dance with me - you don't have to but it would be nice.

About her ideal match
Someone who enjoys music - I love all types - Rod Stewart to Vierne. Someone who shared my sense of humour and is very positive about life. Someone who is active and still enjoys doing lots of different things. Someone who is kind and sensitive - and feels confident in most situations. Just someone I can feel really comfortable with and look forward to being with. To have a meal out and enjoy meeting up for family occasions. To sing together when we hear music we both love. To laugh together and be there for each other. Is that too much to ask????
