Like to think am easygoing, friendly and humourous personality. Am an English teacher, hoping to retire sooner rather than later and getting used to my new life as a widower. Love reading and writing and anything to do with language and linguistics. Weather permitting love to get out walking in the hills and moutains near me with my two dogs. Cooking has also become a new found passion of mine. Hoping to gain some new penpals from home and abroad and learn about life, culture and anything else that crops up in conversation!
