If I take the plunge I'll let you know; maybe the fact that no one is still here that's tried it bodes well? kiss

I would think all you need to do is smile at a man and your match is made.

I tried it once, it cost me $1000.00 US and I had choices of several pictures and the people in the photo could agree or disagree with the request to meet. In my case I had a choice of 12 pics of women who would make a good match. The philosophy of the agency was that opposites attract. As a result all the women had opposite beliefs from mine although they were all very nice and respectable. I dated the 12 women over time and discovered opposites do not attract, they also felt frustrated with no chemistry. It was a waste of money. I had more luck dating people I met in person without a matchmaker.

sorry but I can meet people on my own; we have dog walkers, au paurs, nanny's, gardeners, housekeepers, and God knows what else. Can anyone do anything anymore? We are a lazy society.

Just make yourself available, meet people, and things will be fine.

You can mix antimony sulfide (poisonous) and potassium chlorate, with a little cornstarch as a fuel and gum to hold it together. Alternatively, you can use sesquisulfide of phosphorus instead of an antimony compound. White and red elemental phosphorus also work, but they are extremely toxic. Friction matches on a stick are familiar to most people, though if you coat paper with the mixture, you can fold the paper and draw a fine splint of wood across the coating.
