In Her Own Words
About her
Fact file:
Real coffee not instant.
Earl grey - but not exclusively.
Cadbury's - not Hotel Chocolat
Most types of music, but classical first choice, (Bach and his ilk not my first choice) followed by world, show and 60s/70s
Haven't grown out of feeling passionate about social affairs - national and international.
Just discovered Tai Chi on You Tube. Probably look foolish.
Love to sing - but the cat asks to go out when I do.
Play the horn badly - the cat runs away when I do.
Want to travel now that I can in term time, having just retired from teaching (in an all boys state secondary school). Doesn't have to be luxurious. Camped in Africa and American national parks.
4 independent married children, who all get on - no dramas.
Theatre - films - reading.

Just 'clicking'.
