In Her Own Words
About her
I enjoy good conversation over a good meal and love in-depth exploration of ideas and opinions. I'm a retired academic/education manager and spend a lot of time learning to play the clarinet and making mosaics and stained glass, when I'm not working as a volunteer for a well known advice organisation. I love city breaks and just walking around to get the feel of new places before visiting the tourist attractions. I'm left wing, independent and self-sufficient, but I really enjoy sharing experiences and humour.
About her ideal match
Someone who enjoys a challenging discussion as much as I do and starts from a position of treating women as equal friend; who, though they may initially be reserved, is prepared to be open about themselves and open to new ideas and experiences. Able to take pleasure in little things and pottering about, but prepared to share their own deep appreciation of things they enjoy. Shared activities might be music, travel. Deal breakers would be xenophobic attitudes, stereotyped views of women and expectations about women's roles. I'm generous and I would expect a partner to be similar.
