I am a conversationalist and like to talk to people from all over the world especially by letter or email or here. I like to read and write and to study. I love animals especially cats. I like to write short stories and am attempting to write a novel. I like listening to speech radio but do not watch TV. I am educated and cultured.I live in a historic town close to a large city. I have stopped working now, I used to be a Civil Servant. I like to walk in the nearby hills and moors and have a particular interest in architecture and fashion. My days are free to be able to do what I want mostly.
