NO emc ! just incase no one fancies me, how depressing is that ! that would really rub it in, like being the last to be picked for the netball team , lol . No im going to stick to eating pickled onions out the jar for now. I think all the single people should make the effort to go to the next forum drinks
I think it's more that men are just a bit more embarrassed about going to singles events.....they feel a bit funny suggesting it to their mates so with no-one to go with they just don't....Soooo annoying that they're rubbish at stuff like that as I'm fab and am just going to waste!

I?m back from the pub and yes I didn?t meet anyone?. as usual. I?m up for a singles night bring it on. Got my own teeth, no beer gut, a job, no debt, wash regularly, not mental, not a divorcee?what else was there. See there are some of us out there!


Reading this thread you?d think all the problems are with the men and all the 30 + something woman are perfect.


I?m not doing f#cking speed dating though

My daughter just hooked me up with a solvent, good looking, intelligent, sporty guy who I got on really well with - only problem is that he's under 28 and I'm not!! Should I go for a possible short-term romance with handsome young dude, or should I stick it out until I find 'the one' that might last into old age?? Hmmn, hard choice. Get it while you can has always been my motto!!!! But maybe I should grow up!


What say you wise old tarts who understand my predicament??

Why wait for the prune which may never arrive when you have the chance of a bite at the succulent plum now? If you get on with him - what's a few years? I have 2 sets of friends who have juicy plums for husbands...one involves a 10-year age difference, the other a 17-year difference...both couples are very happily married. Go for the plum before someone beats you to it...


Oh, and enjoy!

Lol, I have had a much younger partner before, but this guy is totally different. Really switched on and intelligent. Plus he thinks I'm great, so far, lol! I'm still pinching myself ro see if I'm dreaming, but will take it slow. Once bitten and all that!

Sorry my last post/reply above sounds a bit negative, I think genuinely that single guys are fearful of going to a singles drinks do. After all there is situation where alcohol, conversation & girls all turn up at once. For some this is a dream & a nightmare rolled into one so they back out, even though they kick themselves after.


If you do want to organise an "event" then maybe a social activity like 10 pin bowling (Hollywood at Surrey Quays) will work, the less confident can hide a bit by getting into the bowling & the girls can see how the boys handle them selves. The conversation & booze can flow later.


It's a bit cheesy I know but good harmless fun.



Who knows there may be a few "lucky strikes" ( tishhh booom ) thrown in.




W**F

Of course darling - aren't we all!!

There are single guys around - but they usually are the wrong types!! Or I am very unlucky!!


I think the single nights are daunting for girls too (well me personally).. I did speed dating once only to support a friend (I was actally seeing someone at the time) - it was fun - but I probably wouldnt do it for myself - would definately hit a shy note...


Instead of a singles night, how about a girlie night out??


I dont know about other people here, all my friends seem loved up and fail to realise that if they dont go out with me, then there is less chance that by the time the meet me again and ask "so are you seeing anyone", that the answer will be "yes"!! :)

I have a friend in the British army who I write to occasionally because he has no family here in the UK. He is posted in Germany and would have been an ok catch if I were ever to be in the same country as him when I was actually single!! Does anyone want to take him off my hands??


He is due back in the UK just before Christmas and he's a total sweety. He's another young one though - and I've never been there - just incase you were wondering!!!

Why don't you single gals post a description of yourselves and the type of guy you are looking for, like height, length, age range, personality, etc?


If you want to be really adventurous - set up a disposable hotmail account and post it with your 'personal ad' to maintain privacy.


You never know - Mr Right might be reading this thread.

    • Majority of reported hate crime is based on ethnicity, brown, black and mixed heritage. Religious hate crime is lower and most affects Muslims, Jews to a slightly lowers number and a small percentage of Hindus and Sikhs.   Real or perceived atrocities committed by Muslim extremists and the state of Israel will influence numbers  Anyone who has been to a protest against the war in Gaza will see mainly peaceful and good natured crowds including Jews against war. @CPR Dave stop making a fool of yourself. Corbyn cannot admit to being wrong.  He sprouted nonsense that Russia was not responsible for the Salisbury poisoning, would not be contrite about the accusations of anti-Semitism, and is partly to blame for Brexit. He may be principled and a decent person but is not a Messiah and ran a poor campaign in the 2019 general election, a gift for Johnson. I expect he would have been pants in dealing with COVID, and Johnson set a low bar. I'm with Miss Jean Brody on the Spanish Civil War.  It maybe not!
    • How does your mind work? This is a thread about a bakery that may be opening. Your grasp of history is extremely weak. Mosley’s fascists were opposed and defeated all over the east end, not with petitions either. The principal leadership in driving them back came from the Communist Party but it was a united, cross community movement. The Daily Mail provided constant support for the British Union of Fascists and, along with sections of the Conservative Party, echoed their racist rhetoric. Plus ca change, plus c’est la meme chose. Excuse my French. To characterise pro-Palestinian demonstrations attended by thousands of Jews among the hundreds of thousands of people from across British society as “protesting Jews’ rights to exist” or comparing them to Mosley’s blackshirts is frankly sickening. You should be utterly embarrassed and ashamed of yourself.
    • I really hope so too, but they aren't going to get much passing trade, and parking round there isn't easy. Fingers crossed.
    • What's your answer, then? Should the council raise council tax to employ double or treble or more the number of workers to spend all their time clearing leaves from every street every day? Leaves have been cleared from my street several times since leaf fall began, including as I say very recently. It's impossible to keep every street permanently clear, and the situation is made worse by heavy rain. My partner broke his ankle in several places a year or so back when he slipped on wet leaves. He didn't blame the council.
