There are few things more pleasurable than sitting down with a cup of tea (and a slice of cake) to read a chatty penpal letter. I am a quite shy (until I get to know you) lady who lives with her husband. I'm interested in history, archaeology and the natural world and like to explore the countryside around where I live. I have a tiny garden and spend time tending my plants or sitting in quiet contemplation. If you write to me that's where I'll sit and read your letter and write a reply. I read a lot of books, bake, sew, knit & spend time with a small circle of friends.
