In Her Own Words
About her
I am calm, kind & confident. I like walking (preferably in nature), talking and staying active. Although my pet hates are litter, being late and people who walk slowly directly in my path, I remain polite. I do park run most weeks and the odd 10k, and sing in a choir. I go to the cinema a couple of times a month and love sci fi, thrillers and dramas. Past hobbies include salsa dancing and scuba diving, both of which I'd like to revive. I've been solo for some time but now feels right to explore possibilities again, friendship, companionship, who knows? Let's see what develops.
About her ideal match
I'm looking for someone of a similar age who is comfortable in their skin, independent and kind. Laughter is important to me, so a similar sense of humour is key. I would like to meet someone I can go walking in nature with. A fellow park runner perhaps? Going to the cinema, theatre, museums, galleries? I don't like cooking, but I love eating and I'll do the washing up! Deal breakers for me are: already in a relationship; smoker; someone who drinks solely to get drunk.
