In Her Own Words

About her

If I described myself as 'fiery', 'intelligent', 'sarcastic' and 'a fan of a good debate' you'd probably have an image in your mind of an argumentative, over-educated, wise-cracking Amazon. You'd be about right. But if you take me to your favourite café, tell me exactly why I'm wrong about 'Brave New World' (it's a utopia; just try and convince me otherwise), and laugh at my frequently-embarrassing travel tales, then we'll get along nicely.

Follow it up with a little old-fashioned chivalry (do you really need to be wearing your jacket when I'm so very cold?) and the romantic in me will be over the moon.

What do I do with my time? Well, I'm passionate about literature - I think reading is like breathing, except more essential. I love classic movies and trips to the theatre - not, I hasten to add, that I like to spend all my time sitting in the dark; I'm very social, and I love checking out new places to go, and things to do. Museum? Gallery? Joust? Concert (bonus points for Brahms)? Castle? I'm sold!

I really enjoy learning new skills - for example, a couple of years ago I taught myself to knit and only tied my finger to the knitting needle once, which I think was a reasonable start. I travel a bit for work so just now I'm having a go at learning Portuguese ahead of a trip to Brazil later this year. I'm also attempting to become a better cook, and I'm always on the look out for volunteer tasters. How brave are you feeling?

About her ideal match

I'm looking for someone who'll be patient when I vanish into a bookshop saying 'back in five minutes' and then don't come out for an hour, who'll be booking plane tickets before I've finished rhapsodising about my latest travel destination crush, and who makes a mean Old Fashioned/cup of tea (depending on the circumstances).

Is that you?
