In Her Own Words
About her
Been single for over 2yrs now and think it’s time to build a new story, hopefully my forever after. I have a good job, car and house and am not looking for sex, that will come later!
I love animals, especially dogs and am always a bit scatty when I’m around them. Enjoy the outdoors and like to travel, visiting new places and get excited when I find a quaint pub off the beaten track.
I’ve been to Spain, Belgium, Portugal, Greece, Rhodes, Ireland and Barbados, including; Aruba, Antigua, Curacao, Grenada, St Maarten, St Lucia, Kingston. Looking forward to booking some more getaways this year and it would be great if I had a companion, be it just friends or something more.
Born in the UK, grew up in South Africa (Johannesburg) and now back in the UK for over 22yrs. I like motorsport, rugby, martial arts, cooking, dancing, music and definitely summer over winter! I recently finished decorating a bar in my garden, and no, it’s not a shed, it is definitely a bar! It’s great to be able to sit in there after work on a Friday with a cold one, listening to music and relaxing in the sunshine.
I am a mornings person who is generally positive and optimistic and it doesn’t take much to get me excited either! Easy tiger, that’s not quite what I was referring to 🤣
I have recently started exercising again (had stopped due to pain). I enjoy cycling, swimming (outside pool that is), reading and diamond art (similar to paint by number). I’ve tried to learn a 3rd language - Italian, but never get very far with it.
If you can’t be bothered to upload a photo, I can’t be bothered to respond!
About her ideal match
This is always difficult to answer, because everyone is unique in their own way. One may think one knows what they want, but all it takes is for someone to come along and show you something new and different and you fall in love. Well, hopefully 🤞
As long as you’re kind, caring, have a great sense of humour and can take a bit of banter, we’ll get along just fine. I like to hold hands and show affection in public (hugs, not snogs). I want a relationship that has a bit of give and take - we don’t need to be in each other’s company all of the time. It would be awesome if you enjoyed weekends away, driving somewhere different for the day and exploring.
There is one thing that I will not compromise on and that is, if you smoke/vape, sorry.
PS. Please love animals, especially dogs 😉
