In Her Own Words
About her
Fair-weather gardener, most-days jewellery maker. Will walk as long as there is cake or lager at the end.
I like to visit art galleries and gardens, and always enjoy browsing a bookshop...though I have given in to the world of kindle and digital books in a failed attempt at minimalism.
The profile pic was taken in 2023. The lake shots were also taken last year, in Killarney which I visit as often as I can.
Well, I tried to resist cliches but, apparently, I haven't said enough, so ... I can cook, knit, sew, make jewellery and grow things but find one or two of those activities rather boring (particularly knitting). More importantly, I'm kind (mostly), fun (sometimes) and I think I can remember how to be glamorous. I used to be adventurous, travelling around the USA and Mexico for several months when I was young. I need to be adventurous again.
About her ideal match
Someone who is fun and interesting who would like to join me for days or evenings out to enjoy the arts or some comedy. Someone who enjoys a trip to a cosy pub or cafe but will also make me stretch myself.
I'm up for some walking and exploring but no technical terrain, please, (I'm frightened of heights).
Beyond that? Let's see!
