I’ll passs on the family and friend introductions I think - as previously mentioned I may need to take action myself.
The last time I said to someone I thought I might get a girlfriend I went out and within 1.5 hours of leaving The Goldeneye Ranch I had a date !
I kid you not.

I would hate to spoil this record by trying to do the same thing again and failing - after all it couldn’t have been a fluke could it

I’m pleased romance is blooming in and around the coven - sounds idyllic - we must all hope to be so lucky

Keep off the honey - it has over 60 calories per spoonful !
Enjoy the Evening

What do you mean ‘doesn’t get me anywhere’… you’ve hardly started on the mission and you’ve only been to the end of the road. Ask your friends how they met their partners, especially those who have got together over recent years. Long solitary walks and a closed existence in the Goldeneye Grotto is not going to optimize your chances so forget internet dating and get your family and friends to make some introductions. How many friends have you got?

A member of the extended Coven popped in this afternoon with new boyfriend and what a splendid couple they make. After years alone they found each other and seem to share quite a few things in common like working out in the gym and running, they both cook well and are sociable. This man fits in perfectly with the Coven and all its associates…. sometimes he leaves us little gifts like pots of honey from a friend of his who keeps bees.

WoE

p.s. keep with the chivalry, it’s part of your charm… lose the club, it’d be just your luck to get the type who hits back

Let us remind ourselves of the rules of courtly affections:

From The Art of Courtly Love by Andreas Capellanus

1. Thou shalt avoid avarice like the deadly pestilence and shalt embrace its opposite.
2. Thou shalt keep thyself chaste for the sake of her whom thou lovest.
3. Thou shalt not knowingly strive to break up a correct love affair that someone else is engaged in.
4. Thou shalt not chose for thy love anyone whom a natural sense of shame forbids thee to marry.
5. Be mindful completely to avoid falsehood.
6. Thou shalt not have many who know of thy love affair.
7. Being obedient in all things to the commands of ladies, thou shalt ever strive to ally thyself to the service of Love.
8. In giving and receiving love’s solaces let modesty be ever present.
9. Thou shalt speak no evil.
10. Thou shalt not be a revealer of love affairs.
11. Thou shalt be in all things polite and courteous.
12. In practising the solaces of love thou shalt not exceed the desires of thy lover.

Well all that’s left is for us to make you a suit of armour and send you off into the world with the hope that you don’t look conspicuous or sound too squeaky

WoE

Bring back Chivalry!
I’m all for chivaly in fact I practise chivalry whenever I am in the company of ladies - always have - always will - thing is - it’s not getting me anywhere
Cheers

I’ve just been drinking tea with 3 single women and not a single proposal.

Why did you not propose to one of them, most women would prefer the old fashioned way and be proposed to, rather than ask themselves. Bring back Chivalry!

You will do no such thing…. we’ve forked out a small fortune on hats and a bucket full of organic confetti which is rapidly turning into compost

WoE

p.s. we ought to point out with regard to point 2… since you and LB are the only single men we know, it’s not looking good their either… what’s the gay scene like in WW?

1: Just get a standard issue girlfriend
2: Have a go at being gay
3: Abandon the whole idea of Love in a Cold Climate !

Women only perceive what they seem to have or is it they have what they seem to perceive… or perhaps they never had it and the perception of it was seemingly lost on them … stop messing about and get wooing

WoE
