THE HITCHING POST

I am 73 years of age, retired and living in Howick, KwaZulu-Natal. I have been widowed for nearly four years and would like to find a male companion so I don’t have to spend another Christmas alone! My children all live overseas. I enjoy life, keep myself busy, love walking and keep relatively fit and healthy. I enjoy a glass of wine each evening and going to restaurants occasionally. No chancers please and must be financially independent.

COUNTRY LADY

I am a 70-year-old, self-sufficient white woman who is fluent in Afrikaans and English. I live comfortably in a small retirement cottage in Oudtshoorn. I have a family of four grown-up adult children who are married with families of their own. I have eight grandchildren and two great grandchildren. I have no encumbrances and am single, looking for a companion and friend to share my life with.

I weigh 65kg and am fit and extremely healthy. I am looking to meet a gentleman friend of similar age with no encumbrances who is a practising Christian and who is fit and able to enjoy our mature lives together, both outdoors and indoors.

I am an excellent traditional cook who is looking for a soulmate.

CARING AND KIND 6622

I am a professional lady aged 39, and would like to meet a mature Christian gentleman who loves God.

PRE GRACEFUL

I am a brown-skinned young woman from Windhoek, Namibia. I love farming and travelling. I am looking for a man I can settle down with, preferably white, coloured, or a Capetonian. He must be willing to have children and lead a happy family life. I speak Afrikaans and an indigenous language.

REAL LOVE

I am a hands-on person still in the workplace. I reside in a coastal town in the Eastern Cape. Are there any genuine men out there aged between 65 and 70 looking for companionship with a genuine and caring lady? My interests are music, art, cooking, catering and home life.
