About Me

I am married with a family.

I believe myself to be an outgoing, fun, ( a bit glam), quite fit (!) woman.

I'm not frightened to have a go at anything, yet take what I do seriously, and to the best of my ability.

I love a challenge!

Interests & Hobbies

It depends on what mood I'm in........!

However, I do enjoy trying to keep fit as I like to feel good and look as good as I can.

I could say that I enjoy cooking, although, probably the last special meal I cooked was "Beef wellington" about 6 months ago!

I enjoy reading when I don't fall asleep after the lst page, and can't remember the next morning what I've read, and have to start again, hence, I buy lots of books but rarely finish them!

I love restaurants and a lively bar!
