Why should you get to know Haln?

Why am I doing this? Basically because although I am quite OK on my own, I know there is more to life, and would dearly love to meet a true friend,companion, soulmate and lover, to share everything that life throws at us both good and bad. That is not to say that my ideal man would want to do everything with me all the time...that would be ridiculous and unhealthy, but a shared interest in at least some of my activities ( and mine in his too), would be wonderful.
I am retired from teaching music, and don't miss it at all! I am busier than ever with renovating my 200 yr old cottage and garden, playing amateur music just for fun, sailing all sort of boats, walking et al. I am a very active person, full of energy, definately not a couch potato.
If you are looking for a fashion following bimbo, whose only needs are 'must have' and 'lurve', then read no further. I am an intelligent, free thinker, who loves conversation, and hates stupidity and bores. I am usually to be found wearing jeans and T-shirt in the summer, and jeans and jumper in winter, but I can (and do) dress up for special occasions, and can even do a sexy pantomine Robin Hood for fancy dress!

She describes her ideal match thus:

You will be active in body and mind. You will be honest, kind, loyal, compassionate, sensitive, intuitive, probably have a quirky sense of humour and be able to laugh at yourself and the world around us. You will appreciate the sunrise and sunsets, and will love the changes in light. You will be more of a countryman than a 'townie'. You will like my dog!
