Intellectual, sexy, witty woman with oodles of charm and an interest in politics happily stranded in (East) Sussex would love to meet a similar man verging (like her) on the eccentric.
Telegraph reader - of course! Lover of books, arts and I’m Sorry I Haven’t Got a Clue/Cabin Pressure/The news Quiz. A merry musketeer upwards of 55 would fit the bill - preferably with hair, no harem, stature and a witty way.
Not ventured into a drinking den or eatery yet, but will embark on such an adventure with the right guy, nonchalantly casting my face-mask into the gutter.
Till then, Penelope will keep spinning till Odysseus rocks up.
THE HELL SHE WILL!
Hello there Monica,
I'd happily return to Ithaca to fight off your less than suitable suitors, it would certainly help with my lockdown lassitude!
However, being stranded in the West Midlands my sailing skills aren't what they might be (even before that bloody Cyclops ate all my crewmen), so distance may dash my hopes.
In the meantime, please accept my compliments on your rather lovely profile.
Kindest regards,
Liam
Dear Liam
How very charming of you!
I'll just have to carry on spinning then until you complete your odyssey.
A bientôt
Monica
I'm just giving Calypso "the talk" and patching up my sails.
