Not sure if it's been suggested before, or what the technical implications would be, but what about a section specifically for singles in ED?

I was thinking of categories such as 'companions wanted' where you could put an ad out for people to come along to events e.g - 'Anybody interested in going to the fillinblank concert/event?'

As well as a friendship/dating type category. You could even expand it to advertising EDF singles night at a local haunt.

At a stretch, you could even have a 'New to ED section' where newbies could arrange to meet up.


I've lived in ED for many years, I'm not a BillyNoMates - I have brilliant close friendships, but due to work, geography, family commitments etc there are times when I have thought 'wouldn't it be great to just log in and see whos around for a quick drink/cinema/coffee in the park.'


So admin, what do you think?

And with a tone like that...


Maybe admin gets tired of answering same questions over and over?

As on the other thread, what's wrong with starting a singles thread. If the demand is there it will stay on the front page


Alternatively... Craigslist?

Yes I do read it and my singularity plays no part in anything. How odd.


Yes the singles section of the forum has been mentioned before but I don't think it warrants its own section. You could try setting up a group meeting via the events section or as StraferJack suggests, another website with that functionality.

      Interesting, because I am finding it next to impossible to get an appointment at Tessa Jowell.

      Yes, I live Colyton/Dovedale area and lots of swifts usually.  I'd love a swift nesting box too.

      There's always a large flock(?) over the area of back gardens surrounded by Colyton / Dovedale / Marmora / Scutari, but no idea if / where there are any nesting boxes. We'd love to have one, and often have swifts zooming close by, checking out possible sites.

      I would have thought the cost of erecting X meters of metal barriers would be the same irrespective of location, plus given the issues with access now due to the "bunds", it would also be easier given the ample direct access the common provides? The reason I've heard from the organisers is that their footprint has been tailor made for that part of the park, so it's not possible to fit it anywhere else. Which is a ridiculous argument given that  they've already altered / extended it due to the space they've 'lost' from the "bunds". The reason I've heard from FOPR and others is that as the common is public land (or similar) it requires permission from the Home Secretary (or similar) due to ancient grazing rights or something. Oddly it doesn't seem to have affected the circus, the steam fair, the dog show etc etc etc Yes, the wide path where Parkrun starts & finishes will become a controlled crossing during the build, and completely closed off during the festival. Also, when I asked about the reason for the extended footprint onto the sports pitch, they said it was to replace lost space where the bunds are, which they used to store equipment. However, they were unable to explain where this storage area now was on the new plan... And when asked about the loss of the sports pitch due to the extension & access road, they said the council had assured them there were no matches booked for that period. But what about the kids, families, who play on them? No answer...
