I see what You both mean...


KalamityKel I see your point and trust me if i say i don t look or sound pervy ( i see what you mean though) and generally I probably would not dare to ask straight away if someone is single.....unless there are huge signs she is not (like a ring on the left hand for instance)


on the other hand i see also Red Devil s point...surely some of them will be happy to show it off..but Finally I agree with Whattajoke...Whats wrong with asking someone if they are single?


...to have a laugh all together i must confess i have been on a date with a very distinctive Young woman(33yo) when i first moved to ED ...

As she asked me (before I managed to get over the first pint) How Much do I earn per year and if i own a house in London....I assume i can ask them if they are single!!;) :) :)


(HOPE YOU READING THIS KATY!!!):)


Wishing all of You a lovely we! Thanx for writing..

Go ahead, chat to a girl, then when it seems like a good time, check out if they are single and do so with a smile.


Given that single girls raise the same problems as you do then why not go for it?


I think many ladies these days find it refreshing when a man is brave enough to ask them out.


Whether she is single or not I can't see that anyone would be offended by a guy taking a shine to them. And if they do take offence then they aren't someone you should worry about! 😉

I don't like being asked if I'm single... there are other ways of addressing the burning Q. Asking such a Q just makes me think "oh dear here we go". Think I'd prefer the get right in there approach - if you wanna ask someone out just do it. Doesn't matter whether they've single or not surely!

..little updating..


I don t think anymore that it will be any useful for me to know about their rings..

..It wouldn t matter anyway if I knew by watching at their hands if they are single or not..

I just need to accept that sometimes (not always ) i am too shy..

\..Yesterday went to the gym where I saw a beautiful blonde blue eyes girl.. and i really fancy her..

...we have been looking at each other in a kind of flirty way for all the time i was at the gym and I noticed she had no rings..

I saw her also sunday before last one and we smiled at each other in a few occasions but still... I wasn t "brave" enough to say something to her...:(

I think i m just very bad :).. with or without ring..

    • Direct link to joint statement : https://thehaguegroup.org/meetings-bogota-en/?link_id=2&can_id=2d0a0048aad3d4915e3e761ac87ffe47&source=email-pi-briefing-no-26-the-bogota-breakthrough&email_referrer=email_2819587&email_subject=pi-briefing-no-26-the-bogot_-breakthrough&&   No. 26 | The Bogotá Breakthrough “The era of impunity is over.” That was the message from Bogotá, Colombia, where governments from across the Global South and beyond took the most ambitious coordinated action since Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza began 21 months ago. Convened by The Hague Group and co-chaired by the governments of Colombia and South Africa, the Emergency Conference on Palestine brought together 30 states for two days of intensive deliberation — and emerged with a concrete, coordinated six-point plan to restrain Israel’s war machine and uphold international law. States took up the call from their host, Colombian President and Progressive International Council Member Gustavo Petro, who had urged them to be “protagonists together.” Twelve governments signed onto the measures immediately. The rest now have a deadline: 20 September 2025, on the eve of the United Nations General Assembly. The unprecedented six measures commit states to:     Prevent military and dual use exports to Israel.     Refuse Israeli weapons transfers at their ports.     Prevent vessels carrying weapons to Israel under their national flags.     Review all public contracts to prevent public institutions and funds from supporting Israel’s illegal occupation.     Pursue justice for international crimes.     Support universal jurisdiction to hold perpetrators accountable. “We came to Bogotá to make history — and we did,” said Colombian President Gustavo Petro. “Together, we have begun the work of ending the era of impunity. These measures show that we will no longer allow international law to be treated as optional, or Palestinian life as disposable.” The measures are not symbolic. They are grounded in binding obligations under international law — including the International Court of Justice’s July 2024 advisory opinion declaring Israel’s occupation unlawful, and September 2024’s UN General Assembly Resolution ES-10/24, which gave states a 12-month deadline to act. UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory Francesca Albanese called them “a momentous step forward.” “The Hague Group was born to advance international law in an era of impunity,” said South Africa’s Foreign Minister, Ronald Lamola. “The measures adopted in Bogotá show that we are serious — and that coordinated state action is possible.” The response from Washington was swift — and revealing. In a threatening statement to journalists, a US State Department spokesperson accused The Hague Group of “seeking to isolate Israel” and warned that the US would “aggressively defend our interests, our military, and our allies, including Israel, from such coordinated legal and diplomatic” actions. But instead of deterring action, the threats have only clarified the stakes. In Bogotá, states did not flinch. They acted — and they invite the world to join them. The deadline for further states to take up the measures is now two months away. And with it, the pressure is mounting for governments across the world — from Brazil to Ireland, Chile to Spain — to match words with action. As Albanese said, “the clock is now ticking for states — from Europe to the Arab world and beyond — to join them.” This is not a moment to observe. It is a moment to act. Share the Joint Statement from Bogotá and popularise the six measures. Write to your elected representative and your government and demand they sign on before 20 September. History was made in Bogotá. Now, it’s up to all of us to ensure it becomes reality, that Palestinian life is not disposable and international law is not optional. The era of impunity is coming to an end. Palestine is not alone. In solidarity, The Progressive International Secretariat  
    • Most countries charge for entry to museums and galleries, often a different rate for locals (tax payers) and foreign nationals. The National Gallery could do this, also places like the Museums in South Kensington, the British Library and other tax-funded institutions. Many cities abroad add a tourist tax to hotel bills. It means tourists help pay for public services.
    • Having just been to Co-op to redeem a 50p off Co-op members' card voucher on an item that is now 50p more than it was last week, Tesco can't come soon enough
    • Surely that depends on the amount.  It can be quite piffling.
