Thx ,no I wasnt away .Yes, I guess I double tip. The service and the food in major restaurants in france are good. The french bar is not like the usuall english bar that you sit down and you have a chip butty or like merry england. Here in bars you can play loto ,euromillion and at the same time have a cup of coffee ( expresso ) and most of them,they are also tobaccos and they have tables that you can have a quick eat. Croque mesieur, Croque madame ecc...ecc ( type of sandwiches ). And no as much as I love mc-donald ,whimpy, Burger King, KFC I dont leave a tip.
I always tip in restaurants and bars ( cafe's).Eventhough in France the service in most restaurants is included in the bill. I also tip when I take a simple coffee at the stand at a bar, without sitting down.
If you want to hear the story. .let me please tell you.
One day ( dont remember the date )I was talking with one of my many italian friends on fb ( face book ). And suddenly CS Puped up. ( if your looking for singles dont look further - something like that ). FYI since not long they are adverts that pup up on fb.
So I decided to give it a try,and in my back of my head a voice was wispering dont be a foul Alex..! But you know you gota try to see.
So when I loged in I was straight forward called a Web disegner and a scammer ( cause my pic was side ways) ,you know a new face just puped in,and I said to myself where the hell am I ? But then slowely I relized that there are actually good,honest and real people here on blogs and polls and threads.
So yes HERE is more a social site then a dating site.
And as I said before, if your looking for dating ( relationship ) in my humble opinion you have more chances to shut the computer down and get out that door and find yourself a good man. Better then ANY SITE.
Its 3 months and if I'm not wrong Perhaps more ,that apart from having a laugh and a good chat with some good people on blogs,pools and threads,there hasnt been one woman that has contact me for a coffee or what so ever or I have thought I wish I could have a cup of coffee with her ( I'm talking in France ). There are few woman that I wish to meet,but unfortunatly they are in other countrys in europe and and my personal situation doesnt allowed it at the moment.
And FYI ,I know you dont believe me, but I met a girl just with one picture on badoo and one line do you wanna meet or not? we met had a a laugh ,went to cinéma and if it didnt work..That's another pair of hand.
Pls, just put some s'ence next time when you write down.
RE: If you could jump back to your favourite age -
I would, without a minute of esitation to my teenagers years. 20/21 in the 80's. Another life, another world.And to come back to my mistake of living Italy.
