Indeed. I'm going to be too busy this weekend for the computer. Have a Chowderfest later today and then a Superbowl party tomorrow.

It's cumming along solely. hah

I just joined a local social group, so there is the possibility of making new friends and maybe more than friends. Right now there are more females than males in the group so I like my chances. Going to Capital Buffet and an Axe Throwing Lounge with some members of the group next weekend.

What do they have at Capital Buffet, is it like Golden Coral?

It's Chinese and American cuisine. It's nowhere as good as Golden Corral, but I didn't organize the get together. I wish our local Golden Corral hadn't closed during Covid lockdown with no plans to reopen. It's not even as good as Dragon Buffet or United Buffet.

Glad to hear it clang, keep us informed, if you dont i will chase you for it. When i drive up north into the fens from Ely, there are posters up for axe throwing competitions, pig racing, and harvesting, who can keep their lines straight.

Fenlanders know how to have fun. Think of good opening lines per a female, like " do you want to get married". Or, youve scored, or something more sophisticated, i need tranquillising.

The most important thing is to start a conversation. Your both deciding at that point if its worth continuing. I had a mate in the 80s, all it took for him to get a girl was fifteen minutes in a night club, he was stumpy, ginger with a beard.

His success with women was incredible, a god to me. All he did was start talking. But he had a gift with words.

I'm quiet but when I do speak, ladies have occasionally told me I'm funny. But I'm not sure if the mean funny looking. Next time I'll ask for clarification like Joe Pesci in Goodfellas.

Good idea! I would just go and have a good time and dont put the added pressure of trying to date someone.

Woman like confident men, they like humorous men as well. Unless they are drunk and horny (you need to find a place where they hang out) you are not going to to get the airline orange flashlight signalling into the vagina treatment.

I'm always drawn to those who make me laugh.

Yeah that's the plan. Make friends first. If something more happens, it happens. No pressure.

No no no clang, it sounds like reasons not to, when you must. When i was young i went to parties and night clubs or whatever, and come away depressed, and the reason is this. If i went somewhere and had a go, even if it got nowhere, i felt good, at least im in the game.

If i was twenty odd, and a Lynda Carter look alike came in to the bar i was in, and then she walked out without me having a stab. literally, that was a joke, its oppurtunity gone. Its also about developing your social skills, to hone your technique, overcome rejection.

I did this in Birmingham in the old Tower ballroom in Edgbaston, live bands, one adfter the other, all night long , full of birds, bars etc. We did the blanket bombing technique, keep asking, talking till you hit pay day. Many times at 1-34 am i chatted up a girl i chatted up at 10-34, not remembering.

If we got separated, it was every man for himself, we congrgated at the end of the night if we struck out.

Thinking back to all those helpless cases, blokes, stood around watching the dance floor, for gods sake. The gap from doing nothing to doing something is small.

Research shows that two compatible people will be drawn to each other regardless, even in a night club. If you are drawn to someone act. Passiveness is poison. Even if nothing comes of it, do it. Its a numbers game, even strato fortresses in vietnam hit something, that was a joke.

If you and i were in the same room duchess, you would be pregnant before the night was out.

That also was a joke, i think my humour is a bit to dry. Its not only about bars etc, what about miss taylor across the street, oppurtunity is everywhere. Reading this, its too much isnt it? Start slow, getting yourself in the position to succeed is progress. But you must take the risk, of succeeding.

Too dry?   No, darling . . . it's just that you are not humorous, at all. 

Just a thought . . . you might want to work on that . . . as you keep running into the same humorless wall again and again and again.

Self improvement, luv!

It's a local social group. I'll be seeing alot of the same people at the organized social outings. If I tried your aggressive method, I'd lose confidence and be embarrassed to show my face again at the next social outing. This upcoming outing mixes women and throwing axes, common sense dictates I proceed with caution.

Sounds like what we called "Arapaho Dodge Ball" when we were kids.

Love hurts tiki, i seem to invoke memories of your Kent lad. I want you to remember, that those memories would be matched and exceeded, by myself.

In the present.

Picture this, no you picture me dressed as a cowboy, thrown from his horse and dazed, seventeen, like an angel. You dismount, and ask if im ok, i look up into your eyes, not looking away, and grab your thigh, help me i say, you kneel, and i put my head on your chest. Tiki, i say, ive always liked you.....

Fill in the blanks tiki.... shame though....it wont happen. This is my attempt at torture, not bad eh? There are no inverted commas, i cant be bothered.

Clang, cook it anyway you want, but i want a report weekly. When the oppurtunity for showing someone you like them, and you show it, and want to spend time with them, if you dont act on that moment im going to be upset.

Upset is the wrong word, you will be getting a good telling off.

Passivity is death.
