					<description>WoE
no secret reason for the wetting because there was no reason totaly and utterly unprovoked !
Pure mischeviousness I put it down to - either that or she saw straight through me and decided I needed to come down a peg or two :)
The Coxeman did tell me, after I related the tale to him, that women in general are volatile in their nature and this sort of thing can happen - never try to understand the female thought process was his advice

I do wonder whether the topless guitar act might make me a target for yet more water based attacks !
I would certainly avoid it under balconies at night :)

					<description>Rod,

S'pose the reason behind the dousing is a secret or do you always have this affect on women?  Maybe your &lt;i&gt; divine &lt;/i&gt; personality attracted the watery missile? :)

The topless guitar act is a sure fire winner .... shall we try it in Lincolnshire first before unleashing you on the Iberian public? :)  Perhaps hedge your bets and start off with a vest, albeit very low cut... don't want you catching influenza before the money rolls in :)  As your fiercest critics the Witches and Jordan ought to get a preview before pronouncing your marketability.  You'll get points for musicality and general appeal on the Busking Beefcake Richter scale... the points can then be exchanged for air miles and we'll see how far you get :)

					<description>WoE
&lt;i&gt;learn the Spanish guitar and busk on the streets of the Barri Gotic ...
might be better off on the beach in order to display his well publicised torso&lt;/i&gt;

This could be the thing I'm looking for:
A topless guitar playing act - I'll go down a storm

I can see women throwing their underwear at me now :)
Which would make a nice change as the last woman I spoke to didn't throw a thong at me but a water bomb - I kid you not ! 
And she got a direct hit - soaking your host in the process :shock:

					<description>Jordan,

We don't know if we dare but we might suggest to him that he learn the Spanish guitar and busk on the streets of the Barri Gotic.  The resultant crowd is bound to hold a few vaguely interested woman willing to share a plate of tapas.... although to be honest he might be better off on the beach in order to display his well publicised torso :)

					<description>Jordan &amp;#38; WoE
the air raid siren is screaming here at the Goldeneye Bunker - heavy incoming artillery :)

Jordan 
&lt;i&gt;As for the “language barrier” and finding RC a girlfriend, i don’t think this is a much of a factor, most people don’t understand what he says anyway&lt;/i&gt;

I'm sure that's right :) even when women possibly understand the twaddle I spiel out I generally get misunderstood anyway :( The only answer is say nothing :)

&lt;i&gt;Alas, no progress&lt;/i&gt;
Alas indeed, the press was once again full this weekend of women complaining the likes of me where impossible to find :)
I may need to lower my sights a little, there's no point being too picky, especially when you're not in a position to be so.
I'm prepared, in the spirit of getting somewhere, to compromise and say, she doesn't have to look like Pamela Anderson, I'll drop down a peg or 2 to say Carmen Elektra :)

WoE

&lt;i&gt;missing his unique brand of conversation&lt;/i&gt;
Yeah right :)


&lt;i&gt;Before we left he was enjoying some notoriety among the typing pools of England …. is there any progress&lt;/i&gt;
I think that was either a mixup with the pictures or all that time staring at ciomputers and wordprocessing software has had an adverse effect on their eyesight :)

Alas, no progress.  A snail moves quicker than RC, (apart from the French snails, they have to move quicker).  He made some excuse as per usual. :roll:

					<description>Jordan,

We don't like to think of Rod out there all alone with only his veg patch to keep him company.... he'll turn into Howard Hughes if we're not careful :)  The local Coven is indeed missing his unique brand of conversation and plans are afoot to drag him back into the sisterhood.  Shouts of 'don't bother coming back until you find yourself a good woman' .... are but a dim memory now we've come to terms with it's pointlessness :)  Before we left he was enjoying some notoriety among the typing pools of England .... is there any progress?

					<description>Rod,

What we did find interesting was that lots of women were travelling either in pairs or alone, in search of breathtaking architecture and a lively city vibe..... a refreshing change from a pint of Sangria and the nearest unshaven bloke :)

A short pilgrimage to foreign parts invigorates the soul and refreshes how we feel about home, so we heartily recommend it.  

WoE

p.s. we are currently smitten with our new Custo t-shirt and are expecting the relationship to last a lifetime :)</description>

Welcome back, hope the break from RC has done you good.  

As you have seen, you have missed very little on this site, RC's brain seems to be a little dried up at the moment :roll:  Maybe that is from the lack of his Tuesday trips out and being spoilt by you ladies.

As for the &quot;language barrier&quot; and finding RC a girlfriend, i don't think this is a much of a factor, most people don't understand what he says anyway! ;-)
