Not an expert suds. Maybe there are things about your profile you don't say like your'e a great story teller, who knows until they meet you. The only way to date is to get out there and date a lot of people o meet the right person.
It was reported that the Algerian government did not want to waste time as it was thought the hostages would be moved to a hideout and it would have been more difficult to mount a rescue attempt. I am sure those who were rescued are relieved to be out of there. Who knows whether it was the right move or not. It was a fully Algerian led mission on Algerian sovereign territory? Too many contradictions in politics, but terrorism is here to stay and won't be eradicated, jmo.
As promised, sharing another recipe idea today for a member in Scotland and anyone else interested in recipe ideas. I have stacks of recipe cards.

1 tbsp Sunflower oil Saffritto mix 400g Chicken breast chunks 1-2 tbsp Chipatie paste 400g can Cream of Tomato soup 400g can of Kidney beans drained and rinsed 500g frozen Butternut Squash 2tbsp roughly chopped Coriander Cooked long grain rice
1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan and cook saffrito mix for 2 mins, add the chicken and cook for a further 5 minutes until lightly golden
2. Stir in the Chipatie paste, soup, kidney beans and butternut squash. Cover and simmer gently for 15-20 mins until chicken cooked through and squash is tender.
3. Divide between plates, scatter with Coriander and serve with rice
Can also be made with other canned beans e.g Barlotti beans. Canned beans are convenient as some dried beans take a long time to cook such as dried and soaked Butter beans.
For me, cooking is all about experimenting and improvising to find what works. Other ideas welcome.
Next recipe will be Spring veg casserole with garlic bread because I recently purchased a casserole pot. Bargains to be found if you shop around
The only way anyone is going to find out if someone´s real is by cam.
Not necessarily so as anyone can pretend to be someone else on webcam and worse lure you into meeting them. A man got murdered meeting a woman in another country and she existed. Her mates mugged and killed him. Rare, but risky all the same.
There could be other reasons you know like they really are busy. Choosing 'when they don't return your call', who knows really.. I would tell someone personally
Because it is quite snowy and cold this weekend, sharing a little something I am going to cook later based on a recipe I am reading.
