Helenbaden2, 73

hallo, i am a 63 yoa blue eyed blonde and am modern minded in my dress sense and my love of music of all kinds, my favourite being blues and classic rock. i have travelled mainly in europe for vacations and am now widowed after 20 years of marriage to a man i adored,.

i do not wish to go through the embarrassing experimental stages of meeting someone purely with the intentions of getting it together as i feel it more comfortable and reasonable to get to know people both men and women before thinking of breaking the ice on a familiarity. a like for like thinking with that attitude in mind would be more interesting.

i love my cats, i have five and they keep me young running around for as long as they can get away with it.

i drive, however, do not have a car at the moment.

what is on the menu, oh, i am a retired civil servant that likes to cook a huge shepherd's pie to suit a get together.

i am fairly healthy apart from hypertension obviously caused by the stress of london life and i appreciate a glass of wine later on in the day to settle me down for a good night's sleep.

i would like to meet people that are not pushy, that are genuine when it comes to respecting another person's life and interests and that we have a similar personification of not so heavy.
