Own teeth/own hair/smattering of dry rot.

Hobbies include seal clubbing & scaring small children, playing classical guitar, holding Krispy Kreme doughtnuts to ransom, some arty stuff, reading, knitting with dead dog hair, movies, rugby & music.

I'm bubbly with a cheeky sense of humour, reasonably smart, warm hearted & tactile.. more your classic, feminine, hint of make-up type rather than a pink & glittery, tracksuit wearing owner of a vast shoe & handbag collection. I'm very positive & my home & social life are well balanced which, with a great circle of friends, is a good mix of nights in & time out and about. I truly love the sea & can often be found up to my knees in sea water in the middle of winter... I am liable to splash you if I get the chance but I will enjoy holding your hand as we stroll. Loves incl. rubbing noses in winter, sherbert dib dabs, thunder storms, lazy Sunday mornings with coffee & padding around barefoot in PJ's.

Whom would I hope to meet? Aged 44-60, a sense of humour is a must; tactile, a bit of a romantic, able to be silly, wanting both love & friendship. Someone who can enjoy a night in with a DVD as much as weekends away/fun days out. The ability to spell ones own name is preferable, however crayons & colouring book available on request. Qualifications aren't a criteria but being able to hold a reasonable conversation is. I would assume you to have baggage but ideally you'll be in a place where you're able to talk about it whilst moving on with your day, to smile at life & have a degree of excitement about the future. Most of all, I'm looking for someone who can be themselves, someone real. If you're very shy, we probably wouldn't suit nor would someone looking for an 'er indoors... you're ideal will be a partnership. My son is 18 so ideally you would not have very young children; you'll understand the importance of kisses on the back of necks & be prepared for me to try & walk you into a puddle/lampost, smile innocently & bat my eyelashes at you!!
