In Her Own Words
About her
I like people and I like a lot of the lovely things that life offers. I can listen as well as talk and can sometimes make people laugh. Retired for some time from my busy job in London and abroad, I am loving exercising the other side of my brain with dabbling in art, writing, singing, flower arranging, as well as keeping up with international politics, reading, the theatre and live music, and supporting my family and friends. I like walking and swimming too, and just being in the fresh air, including my garden which grows profusely if in a rather untidy way - echoing my house. I would like to meet someone to share some of this with, and a man who could perhaps help me slow down gracefully sometimes! I have lots of friends with a scientific background but am liberal arts myself. I read new scientist from the to time but like to hear about science and have sometimes worked with scientists.
About her ideal match
Confident with himself, happy with a woman who has had her own busy profession and is still interested in the world at large, someone who likes a lively relationship doing lots of different things, but also the peaceful and spiritual side of life. Someone able to relate to my family, which is the most complicated part of my life, and who would like to involve me with theirs. Someone to make me laugh.....
