Sadly it will a boring proper 4x4. The MX-5 does fine most of the time for the 6 month winters, but I need something for the deep snow when skiing now. Still, the MX-5 will be the daily and it can be fun to do some offroading. Would love to get the road in the picture below done, but think it's going to be too late in the year:

ahhh the Trollstigen... biggrin

Somewhat O/T, but that road looks fantastic.

But... is there a missing bit? How do you get from the last hairpin to the plateau at the bottom? Tell me there's a car lift in the mountain, please...!

There's a big pile of feathers at the bottom to cushion the impact smile

Sadly no feathers, just a tunnel, frown However it's not Trollstigen, but another road in a place called Lysefjord. Here's a video of someone driving up it if you're interested.

Just to keep the thread on track - chatting with her although it's pretty hard work. Sadly any roadtrip/ being chopped into small pieces will have to wait as I am heading back to the UK for a week or so. So it would need to be in at least 10 days. But heard there's some complete fruitcake of a lady in the town I'm in who's trying to collect 10 000 used condoms and sleeps with anyone/ gets friends and family to post them to her to help... Who said Norwegians are reserved/boring?!

USD200k isn't a lot, hardly makes you wealthy, especially as the target male audience will be paying divorce and child costs. The Benzo in the article could be a c180 with 70k miles on the clock, ex-cabbie. I would say 'only in America' but that would be depressingly wrong.

Guys, I'd your advice please. Been separated for over a year now and the divorce is finally through.
I've got no chance of meeting anyone face to face so joined up with Plenty of Fish. Not had much luck other than 2 or 3 women messaging back . By that I mean Ill contact them then get a one sentence answer. This carries on for a few days still with them only replying with one or at most 2 sentence answers.
Im now having the same thing on Match. Having been married for 20 years and out of the dating scene is this how women are now? Ive only been doing it a short while but am already get disheartened with the whole thing.
So, what is the accepted way of using these sites? How can I tell when the time is right to suggest actually meeting?

Try being more amusing if possible, if you can make them laugh it's easier. Open questions on subjects they claim to enjoy, suggestions of movies or books they may enjoy based on stated tastes.

And cock pics of course, wide angle lens if possible. They love those.

In other news I've now had 3 dates with a 30 year old virgin, who is incredibly fit... Not religious, never been a man, born female, seems normal (by woman standards) and has awesome tits.

She's going turn out mental and kill me in my sleep irked

I left a 20 year marrage in January - your experience is typical. The women, more so the hotter they are, get HUGE amounts of contacts. So you have to imagine how it is for them....they log on and have 10/20 new messages every day - they blast through firing off a couple of one liners here and there. They don't need to do any more.

All you can do is understand that and hope. Keep you messages short and easy to reply to.....once they are having a proper conversation (not responding hours/days later) then you can ask longer questions.

Basically you need to keep it VERY simple for them to "try" you out and see if they fancy chatting more.

And the right time to ask for a meeting....ASAP!!!! I found an easy question to ask, and one you could use early on was "So, what information do you like to extract from your potential matches before you let them buy you a drink" ..... It allows them to set the pace but they know where it's heading. I've had people respond with anything from a list of questions to saying "I dont need to know much, happy to discover stuff over a glass of wine"

And personally - Tinder. Unless you are ugly/fat/etc. I have no idea why people (that arent ugly/fat/etc) use anything else. I broke up with my last GF (from Tinder) and downloaded the app.....within a day I had 3 dates for the weekend. As it happened I met someone at (who'd have thought) work so never met any of them.....but it is that easy.

i like a good double entendre. Unlike those sluts who prefer being double-entered for four figures or a posh handbag.

As said, any decent looking woman will be getting dozens of messages so you have to stand out, rise above the others and say something to set you apart.

Humour us good, you can be pretty forward to.

I think its a mistake to just seem like a nice guy, they are ten a penny.

Also use really good pictures, you will be up against stiff competition who will be pulling out all the stops to get some action.

let's use this thread to crowdsource an excellent opener. Post the pic, brief excerpt from her pro, we'll do the rest.
