In Her Own Words
About her
My happy place is in the countryside.
I love my family, friends and my dogs of course (age 7 and 10) who were my childrens pets before they left home.
ALL photos 2025 /26
I'm a widow with two adult children (son & daughter). I have a keen interest in the countryside, wildlife, and conservation.
A professional design career in exhibitions & commercial interiors, mostly for the energy sector. More recently I had a non-teaching role in the print workshop of a secondary college in Devon.
Well-traveled at home and abroad. Loving long dog walks, seeing family, meeting friends. I enjoy pastel drawing and crafts, bird watching/listening, garden design and volunteering for an environmental trust.
I'm a left of centre girl politically.
About her ideal match
My ideal match? Jeff Bridges 😄
Seriously, looks are important, but there will be something in your profile that attracts my attention. A love of nature and wildlife perhaps.
My ideal match will save me from here.
I'm looking for a man around my age, but not much older. Sadly, I am finding that men my age want younger women 🤷🏼.
