In Her Own Words
About her
I'm curious about everything and especially keen on art, books, architecture, history, music, writing, and the theatre, concerts, opera, galleries, museums etc. Then there are long walks (about to do the last section of Offa's Dyke), swimming, tennis, skiing, table-tennis and dancing, and the joy of finding wonderful places that are often overlooked, with eg an obscure museum of typefaces, or spurtles or euphoniums...
A sociable, adventurous, warm, active, quick-witted former publisher/freelance writer and mother of three who enjoys exploring, entertaining and being entertained by friends and family.

About her ideal match
Someone interested and interesting who is happy in their own skin, who takes the road less travelled, has a love of books, the arts and cultural travel, enjoys walking, the natural environment, chewy debate, crab sandwiches by the sea and making me laugh.
Someone who is aware of what's going on around them, is always learning and has a sense of the ridiculous. I'm hoping for a connection on an intellectual, emotional and physical level and building a friendship seems like a good way to start.
