Strix   11 #13 Posted April 12, 2013 If you're planning to walk afternoons without the kids, what is stopping you from taking part in any of the walks already organised? I'm sorry, but insisting that only forty something singles with kids can do afternoon walks with you is a very narrow criteria that even your target group are going to find off putting. What exactly are you trying/hoping to gain/achieve here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
nickgwen   10 #14 Posted April 12, 2013 All the walks start at the crack of dawn. You have really missed the point and i do not understand your desire to clutter up this thread. I am inviting single 40s with or without their children. What is wrong with that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Strix   11 #15 Posted April 12, 2013 Oh you are amusing  Why don't you go the whole hog and insist people send you a cv, and follow up references before they are permitted to walk with you? I think it is you who is missing the point. Given how many people here would enjoy your proposal of an afternoon group walk with a good pub at the end of it, why are you adding in irrelevant criteria? You're just painting a picture of yourself as rather unsociable, so even if somebody might have passed your interview, they're unlikely to bother going to the effort of bothering with you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
