In Her Own Words
About her
Tactile and warm, thoughtful, loving and giving. A giant heart. (Trying not to sound like your dog, but I fear I'm failing.)
A problem solver - I care about people, I love trying to help. Feminine. I'm a retired business leader, but don't hold that against me. I'm actually a gentle soul, free to be me now. Sometimes cheeky, playful, sassy. Ready for fun. Where is my play-pal ??
I enjoy the spoken word, and the absurd. Monty Python, Black Adder. If you play pool, count me in. Live music - yes I'll dance. Life's simple pleasures are the best. I like to communicate, I need to feel who you are. I believe in an Attitude of Gratitude.
My life's been unusual. No children due to past work demands. Integrity is my downfall. Solid and stable as a concrete block. Soft as fluff inside. International, globally travelled. Guts, brave. I need very little to be happy these days. With two safe loving arms around me, my world could be just perfect.
Property is a passion and more. Architecture, antiques, and social history fascinate me. Fast cars are finally in my past, but I still love driving. Now here's something shocking - I actually look like my photos. (The main photo was taken in September this year 2025, the second one this August 2025.)
Some music I love: Peter Gabriel's That'll Do. John Barry Out of Africa. Ralph V Williams' Fantasia on a Theme Thomas Tallis. Rusalka Song to the Moon. Radio: Classic FM, Magic Soul, Smooth Chill. I grew up with Genesis (awesome), Pink Floyd + Beethoven.
Film: Nothing compares to Somewhere In Time.
About her ideal match
You're kind. A gentleman. Tactile and warm. A champion cuddler. PDA. You must be sincere, solid (genuine, loyal, honest). Not a dullard playing games. Ready, and brave enough to build a mutual deep loving connection. Able to talk about anything, or I can help :-) You know how to make your partner feel wanted, valued, and safe. You won't let her down, as you want the same things.
No pretensions, you know who you are. Like me... you're strong in your own space. You prefer being alone than being (or taking) second best.
You love laughter, birdsong, country walks. The garden after rain. You wake every day with hope and gratitude. Importantly... if you are sensitive, or have suffered; I value this. I am a safe place.
Hopefully you have few ties. Sadly this may not work: if your children and grandees nearby constantly fill most of your days.
Thank you for reading this and staying awake :-)
