In Her Own Words
About her
Living 12 miles to the East of Limoges in a stone built old house that we, that is my late husband and I renovated. A quick witted, intelligent creative lady who very much enjoys cooking, entertaining and growing vegetables and who above all tries to be kind and helpful to everyone that she meets.
I have been widowed twice to cancer and I miss the companionship and conversation of having a man in my life. if only to meet up for a lunch on a regular basis. My first husband was 20 years older than me and my second was 3 years younger than me, which only goes to show that you cannot help just who you fall in love with.
My working life has been varied,from the WRNS, and then with my first husband we bought a 10 m yacht and crossed the Atlantic, and then lived in the B.V.I. for 8 years and worked in the yacht charter industry. When we returned to the UK I then became a teacher, mainly in the independent sector.
My dress code is fairly classical, and I like to wear nice shoes
I cannot abide poor manners: tattoos and smoking are both an absolute no no
About her ideal match
A man who is interested in many things and likes to discuss them, be that food ,travel, music or his latest hobby. He is likely to be well educated, but above all he must be a kind, humerous person with a real warmth in the expression in his eyes.
A relationship that most probably starts with many conversations, and then who knows where that will lead us.
I shall keep my fingers crossed.
