In Her Own Words
About her
I'm highly sociable and love small dinner parties. Like Nigella, I know my way around a cheesecake pan and the spice drawer.
Proust questionnaire: Cafe Oto or Ronnie Scott's?
Inexplicably, I like the Bee Gees but also Miles Davis, Jimmy Scott, Michael Kiwanuka, Neil Young and Bach. Opera eludes me. While I get the big plots and characters, I prefer literary drama to musical melodrama. But happy to be educated by you if you please.
Serious about literature esp. contemporary fiction - tell me what's on your bedside table and I'll tell you if we're a match or not.
I'm spontaneous and always up for an adventure (yes, I would book a motorcycle trip to Patagonia or Costa Rica on 24 hours notice).
I miss the Canadian landscape (Ontario and BC) where I spent most of my life before moving to London 13 years ago and dream of owning a Dutch barge to take me out of the city.
Do you think it matters if we wonder over similar things?
If you have a black Lab (chocolate and yellow works as well) then that gets big bonus points.
I offer warmth, good companionship, fun and intelligence.
I’m unpretentious and have no emotional baggage.
If your profile doesn't look like it was written by a bot and you're interesting, why not suggest a meet-up for a coffee or glass of wine.
There's more of course that waits for discovery.
Warm regards,
Catherine
About her ideal match
Although I don't have a rigid list, essentially, I'm looking for a smart, engaged man who has his own interests and doesn’t mind that I have a career (although I could happily change direction to build a more interesting life with a new partner).
I'm pretty open-minded but would be very surprised if I clicked with someone who wasn't at least half-way left in their politics. Always happy to be proven wrong.
If you have a literary mind and a big dog that we can walk together, that will seal a deal.
