In Her Own Words
About her
I'm a very straightforward woman, into the simple things (gardening, family, food, learning ..). Totally honest, reliable, no-one would call me outgoing but I love the right social situation. Especially love anything by the sea or water of any kind, and the outdoors in general. Music is important too - playing, singing. And a bit of sport (not averse to watching the footie, love tennis, not so sure about rugby, lost when it comes to golf). I'm a big fan of the Edinburgh Festival (all of them) but rarely have anyone to go with. Traveled a lot when younger, still a Geordie at heart.
Realistic and well-informed optimist. Someone recently described me as 'having an iron will' - not sure if that's good or bad!
About her ideal match
Someone interesting and interested in life. Intelligent, well-read, political feelings, reasonably healthy and into keeping that way. I'm not looking for the love of my life, more someone to have fun with, share activities, learn something new from.
What Her Friends Say
Fiona said...
Alison & I are old school friends & later, fellow travellers & adventurers. She went abroad for a year; I followed. We've hung out together regularly over the ensuing 40-odd years & always enjoy each others'company, She's what she says she is in her profile: honest, intelligent, cheerful, resilient, broad minded, curious, fun to be with. I've known her 4 great kids all their lives & watched them grow into well balanced, sociable people.
I'd recommend her!
