??? Crikey....

Is that the same chick who wanted to learn tango? ;)

no the other one was an Irish lass from Lausanne... but that post disappeared as soon as I posted my helpful comments....

Im intrigued by this one though..

I can offer a one week crash course in Spanish Charlie and then you can dial the magic number but canot teach you drive.  Intriguing though - no photo no profile seems just the candidate for templus (see new recent posting).  Do not want to read too much into this but could they both be Hayes albeit with only one of them speaking Spanish.  Also what is meant by the trip is self financing?   The mind boggles as to what you could get up to in 5 days. Waiting to see how this one develops

No hablo Espagnol Senor, Hola Guappa, dos cerveza per favor, donde esta la discotequa, gracias.

thats my limit... So im no candidate. Also in fairness, chickens and frogs dont do it for me, so as they say in the UK now..." Im Out"....

Normally I do these kind of things for a fee, but as I really need a holiday I propose the following:

- Willing to drive, but only class A vehicle (Mercedes, Audi or similar)

- During the drive a stop of 10 minutes every 2 hours (no discussion)

- During the drive all expenses covered by ordering party(gas, food and drinks - no alcohol)

- Hotel paid by ordering party

- During the stay we both go our own way, or arrangements(in the widest sense of the word) can be made for an additional fee (to be negotiated).

If my offer is of any interest to you, you can contact me by PM.

Dear Gents, let me make it clear:

- Driving will be in Estepona when we arrived the airport, not driving from Geneva to Estepona, that's insane. On top of that, with me, you can benefit Sixt Gold card VIP treatment as 207.67 € for the 5 days, including tax, unlimited kilometers and full insurance. The car type will be a VW Polo or similar categories upon the availability;

- Only car rental will be shared probably F&B but more flexible on this part.

- For your hotel accomodation, I will only tell you the price once you are chosen.

p.s. you can also add my MSN for further discussion: [email protected]

Well done Charlie, just add quiero hacerte el amor to the list and you got the most important aspects covered

Happy holidays!

This thing sounds like a scam to me, I vote kick this user out!

hey watch out what you say! This is definitely not a scam! I am a real person! Is it because my offer is too good to be real?!

this has joe buck written all over it...

up yer kilt...

Ah come Lindsey - I thought you missed him.  Going mto the other thread to see if Joe has teamed up with the other alias

Charlie I have your best interests at heart.  In the event that you find out just in time that your partner is indded Jo Buck these local telephone numbers in Estepona might be a life saver.  I have listed them in order of possible need

Centre for Women: 952 804 704

Supply market: 952 800 999

(use the second one if the first one i s engaged)

Sevillana-Endesa (Energy services): 952 808 282

and then depending on how things pan out

Either

or

Registry Office: 951 050 317

Cannot explain why the numbers of court's 3 and 4 and the Registry Office are almost in sequence. Maybe a small tow

No Fanny for you !

Guys, 

1. I spoke with Fanny, she's a nice real girl who - as she states - is just looking for a travel buddy. 

2. Come on, pls stop with the wise cracks and the sex-hints on so many posts. Some posts are about taking the piss, and that's OK. Some posts, like this one, aren't. 

Thanks, 

Nir

Depends if there is typo on last word of line 2.   10 times over 5 days with the help of Sevillana-Endesa is within the bounds of reality even for me

ok my apologies...Sorry Fanny.

Have a nice holiday.

me out.

Thanks Nir for your call! I was quite upset about those ppl's comments, but we cannot control people's mind and I have to apologize for my vague posting as well, and I should specify I am working for a hotel chain and can get a cool price for acccomodations and car rental! Nevertheless, I would appreciate if you could delete my posting from the front and back end of your database. I don't look for any buddy any more, and will discover this new piece of land all by myself :-) nice weekend though! Fanny

Fanny you have my apologies as well and hope you appreciate that no harm was meant.  I really did think it was not a serious posting

Hi Nir. It's a forum so people can say whatever they want as long as it's not reaaally out of line. If we think a post deserves to be laughed at we will laugh at regardless the intentions of the poster. We are not the politically correct and comforting hotline. We are all adults and one should be able to take the heat for whatever they wrote.

My $0.02.

PS: Have fun on your trip.

Fanny - now that it is cleared up I think you should keep yo0ur posting and maybe it is possible for Nir to remove all the messages and you start from the beginning again.  Again sorry to have messed up a genuine request

Thats the problem, it's hard to get the tone sometimes with text!! Plus in everybodies defense it is a friday and everybodies in a jokie mood i guess!!

Fanny you have to admit it was a wierd siuation. You make your posting (with no photo).The next morning Templus (no photo) make his proposition to drive a girl anywhere.  And now within a few minutes of each other both you and Templus add your photos.   Enjoy your weekend and the next one

wow, didn't expect my posting could raise such contraversy...the worse of the worse is that i didn't expect Mr. administrator's call! Everybody got their points, but that's not what i m looking for unfortunately, raise ur hands if u seriously and sincerely wanna go for this trip together with me, and pls no more "word-game". p.s. all the sincere apologies were already accepted

@fanny i see you've been a member of glocals for almost a year, but i don't know how active you are either at glocals events/activities but it seems this was your very.first.post. And with no picture, mind you.

The problem is that there have been very shady things here on glocals before and so people are suitably .... suspicious .... when a first time poster with no photo says something like that.

And, no matter how innocent you make it sound, on some level, any honest, hetero man would love to be offered the chance to spend 5 nights in a luxurious hotel with a woman they met on the flight. But, since the likelihood of such an offer is no better that getting hit by lightning, when it *does* happen, the first instinct is to doubt.

But, as you see, with Nir's intervention and explanation, *every*one who made comments has taken it all back, and quite gentlemanly, I think.

Just two questions for you.

1. Do men in China get this kind of offer often?

2. Do you make this offer often?

Would love to join you, but I have a volleyball tournament on 5 Sept. I wouldn't miss that for my own funeral.

What do you mean with "men don't get this kind of offers often"???

Do you mean it's just me?

Anyway, Fanny. This was very funny!

I wouldn't miss the opportunity you offered for my own funeral myself, but last time I shared the accomodation with a girl in exchange of me driving her around she was so satisfied with the service that she bought the exclusivity since than.

Enjoy the trip! I really think you will find somebody who will be happy (and able) to jump on the train before it passes! 

errr... I mean "I really WISH you will find..."

hmmm. hehehhe. It just amuses me . Only a man is eligible to apply . That raises some questions. I  don't know what would have happend if a man had posted this.

When the deal is too good think twice!

Well to be honest i would prefer to travel with men. They can act as a personal body guard if needed and they dont go near clothes shops!!

Men are better drivers :)

Maria, i never thought like this!!!! i`m going to istanbul in october, think will follow the line :D

Any candidate??????

It's not the worst idea, I ever heard :D
