I am a fairly serious person, but have a sense of humour. I prefer small groups where interesting conversations can be held rather than large parties. I love learning new things in any areas. I love nature, animals, gardening walking, visits to the theatre and keeping up to date with world events. I enjoy meeting up with friends and lively discussions. Books have always been a big part of my life, having been a teacher in schools and at the local uni. I enjoy craft & making glass mosaics.. Last, but certainly not least ,is the time I spend with my beloved Tibetan Spaniel Zander.
