In Her Own Words
About her
Oxford humanities graduate, ex public relations officer, and ex policy officer in the civil service. I currently work as a project officer for a social enterprise/ charity.
I am a regular member/ attender of the Conway Hall Ethical Society, and go to many lectures examining how current issues seen from a philosophical angle really effect our lives, how we can live "ethically", I guess, and still have a life of quality and fun. (It used to be called The Humanist Society, and has long been a natural home for socialists and classical music fans.)
I live on the edge of the 'London village' of Crouch End, not far from Finsbury Park . I am interested in finding friends who have similar interests and different ones, as well as the soul mate. .
I'm involved in local community politics/ tenents and residents' associations.
I enjoy going on guided walks around cultural places and routes of historic or environmental interest, either in or around greater London.
I take breaks on the outskirts of London when spare time is short. I've enjoyed two day breaks in Hemel Hempsted and and Berkhamsted recently - communter towns, but they have some really great historic parts and inn's - "Henry VIII was here", that sort of thing.
Enjoy wild swimming and pub socials. Love dogs and still do occasional dog walking and boarding
Talented at finding off- beaten-track places to visit (I can do better than the two towns mentioned above, promise!) and interesting things to do. How about a decommisioned underground nuclear bunker in Kelveden Hatch? Or a trip to the Oulten Broads, for a pe less tourist filled experience than on the Norfolk Broads? Or a day's introduction to shepherding skills in Yorkshire?
I have a keen off beat and quirky sense of humour and am particularly keen on Stuart Lee, though he can over do it at times.
About her ideal match
The ideal candidate(s): A 'renaissance man', with lots of intellectual interests but down to earth too. Reasonably fit person, interested in cycling and/ or swimming. left of centre politics. Perhaps with an interest in green politics, transport systems, photography, music etc. Someone who may be in teaching or training, who has postgraduate education possibly. Someone who appreciate the countryside and the coast, and does walking groups. Who's possibly vegetarian but still enjoys the finer things in food and drink. A bit of a polymath.
A good mixer, with a corresponding 'loon' sense of humour to match mine.
