Did you not think of finding a local phone box, and calling from there?
Considered going into a local mobile phone shop and see if they would quickly charge up your phone for you, that is if the meeting place is near a mobile phone shop?
If not never leave home without condoms and a charged phone for a meet!!
the number in my phone and totally dead , yep true and this wil go down as an experiance i really wudnt want to have again

And you didn't have an in-car charger?? Or the nous to leave a bit earlier in case of traffic.... or getting lost?
Hmmmmmmm......... rolleyes
The AA route finder on their website would have taken you straight to the door of the meeting point, and given you a journey time too. Think you'll have to do some serious apologising to the right people.
no thts the thing my car in garage so thought tht id use the metro , i did have pretty ample time , just it went so wrong ... k can see pure flak on the horizon here

In his first post it's obvious he didn't travel by car since he had to get a cab at the other end ... he's definitely not describing Altrincham there ... hence no car-charger and routefinder isn't much use on the tram. lol

Hey i'm new to this , but would love to have a good experience from it. I'm 22, athletic and have a good sense of humour I'm not bi curious and am totally straight although dont mind 3sums with another man involved , just don't expect me to grab hold of anything to make friends as well and hopefully get a female Shopping? Partner if that was enthusiastic about this , getting quickly addicted to these forums ! Get in touch if you want to get something going , thanks , joey x

Just so it stops Freckledbird getting all worked up.... lol
Now, less of the text speak Joey, this isn't kindergarten! Feel free to use the new and improved version if you really must write an advert in your signature... rolleyes
indeed , thanks for clearing that up , just pissed off and really apologetic , cant believe the bad luck to be honest though i really want to make up for it hopefully go to another soon and at least i no where the meet place is , this occasion is called being taught the hard way sad
k thanks changed it now why does it tick fecklebird off?
I think you are being a little harsh!
At least he has come in and owned up for being a little bit of a numptie (meant in the nicest way).
Give him credit - young and a first meet - poor lad!
hmmm and there are still some unsavoury areas left in Alty!
Even if it has gone up market in the last few years!
haha yeh cheers thanks for taking the lighter opinion on what happend . a total numptie
Blimey, the excuses from the "bottlers" get more and more elaborate, don't they! Joke! lol :lol: Sorry Joe - I can understand you getting lost - you must have been rather nervous.
Better luck next time.
Back when I were a lad, we had a rather nasty little nickname for anyone who made a pratt of themselves.
It's a nasty nickname because of it's origins (I blame Blue Peter).
Basically, you stuck your tongue in your lower lip, waved your hands in a (very bad) piano plaing motion and shouted....
JOEY!!

Oh! You'll find out my young Padowan.... :lol2:
Or maybe it's just because if you can't be bothered to write like a grown up in your signature, or bother to check the spelling, why should anyone be surprised you couldn't find your arse with both hands this afternoon..... just a thought... you know... kind of helpful like that today.
I don't think we are being harsh Alex' ... sounds like an excuse is all. Fair play if it was nerves, or maybe it was just sheer stupidity. Either way... rolleyes
Rather than posting in here hunny I'd be sending one hell of an apologetic/explanatory PM to Gingerjo - or post it in her thread she's just put up in LMU!
To be fair, these things happen - and usually when they do it's one thing after another! rolleyes I think we've all been there with 'the day from hell' where everything that can go wrong does go wrong! I know I have!
Unfortunatley for you, this is a GingerJo's meet we're talking about! lol
ye exactly have already sent a couple of e mails saying how bad i feel about what happend that i really wanted to be there and didnt intend any of it to happen which is evident , but i felt i better let it become known that i really made a genuine mistake and dont want to get a bad reputation , i really want to make up for this , hope she gives me another chance although im sure if her to consider begging would seriosuly have to be involved

Nah, harsh hurts much more, dunnit?
Play nice with the wee laddie, now. I wan't something left, for when I tear him to pieces.
At least leave the heart intact. I'm damned if I can do it, but just once I wanna play with one of those, without breaking it.
rolleyes

Ok, I tried, but this bit has me stumped.
Forget what I said a minute ago, throw him to the Language Lions.

How's that?
Awwwwww - give the poor lad a break rolleyes
We have had far worse in here
At least he didn't come in saying that Jo had missed out because he didn't make it!
The bloke is trying to apologise! wink
Well I, for one, am only playing.
Can't answer for the others.
Let's be honest, most of the time I can't answer for myself.
no sorry i meant that for me ever making it up and her putting me down in the future i would have to do some serious begging

Next time honey, remember to take 30pence in change in your pocket along with the number on a peice of paper too.
And if this does happen again, most people hosting things are happy to recieve an apologetic PM rather than broadcasting everything all over the place. kiss
Nevermind, Joey. Better management next time.
:kiss:
Gem. x
yeh i considered that but just wanted it to be known how sorry i was and that i was happy to be open about it thanks xxx

Oooh, you cheat.
You added punctuation! Yet now... I understand.
How silly of me not to understand, before. :doh:
Joey, put it down to bad experience dude, we've all had the days where everything that can go wrong does, its frustrating but i'm sure you've learnt from it. I'm just as sure that others reading your thread have taken note and learned from it too. Have a beer, and chill out, tomorrows another day.
