In Her Own Words
About her
So here I am looking for the elusive Scarlet Pimpernel!
I was widowed two years ago after a wonderful marriage lasting forty years and now I feel ready to start a new chapter. So far I have met up with a few very nice guys who just weren’t right for me and some guys who turned out to be very far from nice - you know who you are! But I’m sure the right man is out there somewhere. Or maybe he’s out there but just not on this dating site!
I’m a very straightforward kind of woman, no airs and graces (though friends say I’m quite a classy bird) and what you see is what you get. I am very loving and loyal and sometimes too honest for my own good. I have a great sense of humour which occasionally gets me into trouble. If we become friends you can be sure I’ll have your back as I’d expect you to have mine. Oh and I do smile and laugh a lot. Everyone has their faults - I have three - impatience, impatience and impatience. I don’t tolerate fools gladly!
I like:
Travelling, particularly love Italy
Reading, always have a book on the go
Cooking, especially for others
Walking, my one year old puppy demands it
Gardening
Watching cricket
Watching Chelsea play
Socialising with my circle of close-knit friends
Music from classical to pop, opera to C&W
Learning to play the piano (badly)
Theatre
Art galleries
All animals especially dogs
A proper afternoon tea
A really warm hug
I dislike:
Selfish people
Arrogant people (have you described yourself as ‘very attractive’ on here?)
People who are all over you like a rash then ghost you without rhyme or reason
Players - seemingly loads of those on here!
Thunder and lightning
Bats (the flying kind not the cricket ones)
If you fall into the first 4 of my ‘dislike’ categories please leave the page now!
About her ideal match
I’m not sure I have a type as such. I’m not looking for a George Clooney lookalike or a millionaire (though either would be a bonus). Let’s just be realistic - if you have the following qualities in abundance then do please message me:
Kindness
Honesty
Loyalty
Wicked sense of humour
Ability to hold a proper conversation
Good manners
Up to date outlook on life but still retaining old fashioned values
Integrity
Ability to send me a well written message without using ‘text speak’and abbreviations I don’t understand
Deal breakers would be:
If you don’t like dogs
If you think you’re God’s gift to women (if you were you wouldn’t be on here would you?)
If you have body piercings (no matter where they are)
If you have tattoos (they may look fine now but trust me when you’re knocking on 80 and your skin starts to sag they really won’t be a good look!)
So gentlemen if you send me a message that really makes me smile I’m happy to share photos.
