Well, we have a fantastic Doctor, for instance, couple weeks ago, Shel going upstairs carrying big load of washing, misses last step, bangs her arm quite bad on bannister. Decides its hurting a lot, walks along to our Doctors, no appointment, seen within 15 min, think its fine said Doc, but head up to Hospital get it Xrayed. Thats done and shes home within 2 hours, having been told Xray fine.
Also, we have a cracking NHS dentist, no bother to get seen, not hurried, he rattles on about anything, sometimes in there just chatting for 10 min before / after getting teeth checked.

PS just in case we get loads of Southerners wanting to live up here, remember its always raining, slag heaps dominate the skyline, coal dust fills the air, charvas run riot. In short...Its Grim Up North, best keep away.

Know its not he same subject, but illistrates the point.
Sorry Neil, if "experts" were that clever we would not be in Iraq. If instead we had listened to 1,000,000 or more people with "gut feeling" we would not be in Iraq.
Sometimes "gut feeling" is best.
John & Shel
no! do you think the people who agoonised over this are really that bloody stupid? do you not think there are god knows how many safeguards and procedures in place explicitly designed to prevent exactly that kind of stupidity?

We play that game all the time and in pubs have been CERTAIN that those people over there ARE swingers, but as its local pubs, we don't take it any further. But if we were in a non-local pub we might try and manouvere ourselves close to the couple and see if a convo could be established.
If so we would ask stuff like, where do you go on holiday? Cap D'adge??? Oh really??? Have you been in any of the clubs there??
Or, do you ever go in Gay pubs? Apparently lots of swingers go in gay pubs, does that mean???

As the Social mentioned by Darkfire was the first munch / social we had attended since the now famous Manchester Munch (and we didn't see anything untoward there either) we wondered how the social would go. We were warned beforehand to be very discreet etc. But to be honest we had a great time, we did do our normal amount of snogging with friends and met some new people as always.
As the attendance was only about 50 people it made a good change from the more (can't think of the right word here so will use) "intense" Munch with over 200 people attending.
We think that Munches are still great fun and perhaps we "old hands" should try and remember how exciting the first ones were for us. Maybe recent members think the Munches they have been to were pretty great as well.

Earthy,
Maybe the problem is that you did too much, too fast. You certainly exploded onto the site / scene with a bang, attended loads of socials, loads of postings on the forums and made lots of friends.
Possibly now its becoming "samey" not so much of a thrill anymore? I've seen the same thing happen in various walks of life. People put loads of effort into something new and then "burn-out".
Perhaps easing back a bit until you get your enthusiasim (sp?) back will help?

Without adding an opinion (maybe later), there was a discussion on this very topic on the radio a while ago. One person made a comment which seemed to stop the discussion stone dead, it was;
"The best mother and father team will always be better in bringing up a child than any other combination".
For example, if you had a mother with the nature of Mother Teresa (for instance) and a father like Nelson Mandella (for instance), then the qualities they would bring together to rearing a child are far greater than two Mother Teresa's or two Nelson Mandella's.
But trying to work out the combinations of quality parenting must be almost impossible, which is better, a mother teresa single parent or an average married couple?
Way beyond me that one.

Can only speak as part of a couple here, obviously! When we're looking thro the swingers ads for potential "meets" 90% of the time its me (John) who looks at all the likely ads then filters out the ones which aren't in our "comfort zone / target area".
Then I'd show Shel the remainder to narrow the selection down based on her preferences.
Is this the same with all couples, ie one does the main sorting. Or do others look at all ads together. Or is it sometime the case that one partner picks a couple and says, "we're meeting them" without consulting their other partner?

If you go down the road of worrying are you a racist because you have not had sex with a black man, then will you have to worry that you haven't had sex with people of a certain age, therefore your ageist? Of course not! Or someone of a certain body shape, therefore your bodyist (just made that up but feel free to use it 
) Again of course not!

We were in brief contact with a couple, we wanted to meet, but apparently that would be impossible "because their dog had diabeties and needed injections too often".
Heard a good one in a now closed club a couple of weeks ago. One man had to pop out for a while as "he'd had a phone call and someone was breaking into his allotment and pinching his cabbages"............ in February??
Odd thing was, he left his wife alone at the club till be came back.
