In Her Own Words
About her
Just before the pandemic I made the move from a small town to live in a vibrant lively city with the theatre, arts cinema, galleries and every kind of restaurant just a short walk away. I'm so glad I did it and feel so lucky it was possible. (Don't get me wrong, I still love the countryside too and go back often.)
I love the arts and the theatre (where I used to work), pretty much any kind of history, old buildings, contemporary art , books and the outdoors. And I have a weakness for crime fiction. Music is a big part of my life- I play classical, blues, songs from the shows- I enjoy it all. I sing in a community choir, play in an orchestra, dance Lindy and enjoy afternoons walking in the Dales, North Yorkshire or further afield on Exmoor on in South Devon, definitely with lunch or a tea room involved. And for the next 18 months I'm a full time student finishing up the history PhD I always wanted to do. I don't have much time for television, but when I do it's the best dramas I want to watch. Friends say I'm warm, creative, lively, thoughtful - and a good listener. I'm on the left politically and I enjoy conversations about culture, current affairs and social justice, but above all I enjoy having fun and sometimes just being spontaneous. I have lots of friends but there is definitely room in my life for someone special who has their own interests to share and is up for trying out new adventures.
About her ideal match
I'm looking for someone kind, thoughtful, caring and intelligent who doesn't take life too seriously. Who's interested in the world and shares my zest for life and giving new things a go, no matter how old we are. If you're someone who's comfortable talking about their feelings, loves sharing what happened in your day and who wants to work at building a caring relationship we'll be a good match.
