sleepless42 Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 With love being in the air and Valentines day just around the corner what about this (I have to say that I am happily submerged??) in a great relationship but there may be others who are not quite so fortunate ... What about Geo dating? Not suggesting meeting at a designated cache (although speed dating event would be amusing in the wilds of Yorkshire!) There must be some folk out there who are keen to contact others of the opposite sex for friendship, companionship (I'll keep it censored). Maybe just someone to share a nice trip out with and who knows? Perhaps all cachers are attached (or those who are not are happily unattached). Just a thought... I might play cupid even. You never know we might even get out first geocaching wedding. Remember it was my suggestion... now where's my hat! Quote Link to comment
+esandman Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 (edited) Hmm. Interesting suggestion. Not sure how it would work though. Has anyone seen this site? It seems to be an attempt to build a social networking site with some understanding of physical geography. http://www.WhereAreYouNow.com There are loads of these social and business networking sites out there now. I found this list the other day. http://socialsoftware.weblogsinc.com/entry...524458 A. Edited February 6, 2005 by esandman Quote Link to comment
+MarcB Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 Well if there's any single, 18/19 year old girls out there I'd be happy to meet them. Didn't think so... MarcB Quote Link to comment
+rutson Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 Nah it'll never work.... ... people who know my wife read this Quote Link to comment
+Nellies Knackers Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 So whats the plan? do you dress up in a leather thong and hide in an ammo box somewhere??? Quote Link to comment
+Cryptik Souls Crew Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 Its already happened click here Having already bagged myself a 19 yr old beauty without having to use satellites to locate her, I can honestly say I wouldn't be signing up ;-) Quote Link to comment
Ben Pid Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 LOL @Geo Ho... I don't think I would swap her out of a cache thats for sure. Although Geo Dating sounds like a good idea, Im not sure how it would catch on- I think the response would be void. But who knows, it might bring a few people together. Quote Link to comment
+G Force Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 There's this TB Manhunt UK but looks like she got stood up at her first cache. Quote Link to comment
sleepless42 Posted February 6, 2005 Author Share Posted February 6, 2005 I didn't say I knew how it would work - and the idea of leather thongs and other such 'get ups' would definitely be out up a cold peak somewhere - you could catch your death... It would however, avoid the complication of explaining just what you got up to in your spare time (Geo whating???) Could always have a 'lost souls' forum... for them who seek a mate. And Rutson... not allowed if you already have a wife - there's other venues for such capers! Quote Link to comment
+Pengy&Tigger Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 a cold peak I was going to say something rude but thought better of it. T Quote Link to comment
+McDeHack Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 My wife does not read this so I am safe. Any geocaching grannys out there that need grabbing? My Attributes..A dirty old man, (68) Quote Link to comment
+leecee Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 What about Geo dating? Not suggesting meeting at a designated cache (although speed dating event would be amusing in the wilds of Yorkshire!) You know, this isn't such a bad idea. Potential "mates" could be rated in Geocaching terms ie: Difficulty - how easy they are to get along with or Terrain - marks out of 5 for looks etc. No ? Quote Link to comment
+mongoose39uk Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 How about some self assessments then suggestion: Difficulty 1. Easy to get on with 2. occasional a bit boring 3. Some grumpy days 4. Hard to live with most of the time 5. Complete arrogant, selfish, self opinionated Toad Terrain (looks) 1. Stunner 2. Easy on the eye 3. Not bad 4. Poor eyesight helps 5. 12 pints Beautiful Remember just for fun My assesment D 1, T 2 Ex wifes assessment D 5, T 4 Quote Link to comment
+Pharisee Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 Hmmm.... I guess it's just got to be a 4/4 at best. Not a lot of chance that there'll too many takers. Oh well.... another weekend caching on my own Quote Link to comment
+Slytherin Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 There's this TB Manhunt UK but looks like she got stood up at her first cache. Yes, that was a shame. Grllfrog is still around and still looking for Mr. Right. We had a few beers with her on Saturday night in Texas. Come on you single guys... send her a valentine. Quote Link to comment
Deego Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 think I am a 5/5 B) looks like another weekend caching with Pharisee and Pyoung1s then Quote Link to comment

+Alibags Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 Well funnily enough, I know Loooooads of single blokes and no single women at all... no strike that, one single woman, but she is 'and individual' (shall we say). It could be my hobbies and interests which tend to attract more blokes than women, but then again, it could be some evil so and so somewhere is getting YOUR SHARE!! Right girls, what am I bid for an introduction to a 34 year old, slim fit, good looking solvent guy (his own teeth and transport), who has been geocaching with me once and would quite like to get his own GPS and get more into it. Location, Cardiff. Only a couple of careless previous owners, FSH... Quote Link to comment
nobby.nobbs Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 i think that makes me a 4/4 on a good day. only because no one mentioned insanity being level 5! since when did women have trouble getting dates? i don't know why i have trouble i mean look at my avatar. enough said, i should be having to fight them off. (and i don't mean the lynching squad). Quote Link to comment
+kewfriend Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 ancient & modern got gps says get lost with me .............. eeeek she who must be obeyed has spotted me typing this ..... .......... arrghh .......croak croak DONT NO ONE MESS WITH HIM !! Quote Link to comment
60North Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 3/4 I'm afraid - must be why I am on my own, or it could be that I have been in so many relationships that there is no-one left The other reason though could be that I have threatened to put a table of ex-girlfriends and their preferences on my web page Well I think that it is funny Quote Link to comment
+Firth of Forth Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 (edited) How about a different rating system? 1 point: own GPS 2 points: own GPS + cachemobile + good income for petrol and geocaching holidays 3 points: all of the above + lots of free time to team up to go geocaching 4 points: all of the above + GSOH 5 points: all of the above + a geocaching addiction Being single and unattached obligatory of course. Edited February 8, 2005 by Firth of Forth Quote Link to comment
+Firth of Forth Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Oh dear! I hope that I haven't made the rating system too tough!! Quote Link to comment
nobby.nobbs Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 hey i like the new rating system. i can rate a five on that easily! i still need two paper bags though. the second incase the first rips. like a bulldog licking p#$s off a thistle. fallen from the ugly tree and hit every branch on way down.

SigurdM Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 GSOH? What does the acronym mean? Geocacheing Sailor On Holiday? Geocache Sighted On Horizon? Goddammed Sexlife On Hold? Quote Link to comment
+Papakas Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 And then Firth of Forth, you have the candidate for 6 points: "so obsessed with Geocaching has no time for dating!" Immediate crash to zero! Quote Link to comment
+Firth of Forth Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Paul - but that's the whole point of Geodateline! Getting obsessed geocaching addicts together, so the dating is done while geocaching!! Sigurd - are you having me on? Where have you been? Oh I know - at sea. Ok GSOH - good sense of humour.

sleepless42 Posted February 10, 2005 Author Share Posted February 10, 2005 Blimey, all that interest! I am now off to rate myself. (and I'm a female and not a bloke before any rude returns!) Quote Link to comment

+Cave Troll and Eeyore Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 Mancunian Pyrocacher doesn't need Geo dateline. Check out this forum and you will see why Quote Link to comment
60North Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 Ooh that's harsh. Some years ago my boss p*ssed me off big time, so being the total git that I am I picked up a contact magazine ringed a few local "lovelies" and left it in his glove compartment. Three days later his wife hadn't gone in the glove compartment, so I retrieved it in his presence. He was ashen faced, told me that his wife would have kicked him out on the street straight away if she had have found it. He treated me with a little more respect after that. Quote Link to comment
+Ashaaria Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 (edited) Hmm fingers crossed i can do 1, 3, 4 and 5 on the new rating system (those who know me in real life can ammend if need be ) But without own transport i think i'm more than a caching mascot Edited February 13, 2005 by Ashaaria Quote Link to comment
+Messe Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 1 OK 2 dont know about great income and have blown 2 cars up already...did shoot of to the Dam for a couple of days..does that count as holiday..only did one cache then went to cafe...big mistake :D 3 OKish GSOH look am i in there?. 5 forgot what the 5 was!!.......in real life put me down as .5 as i am pig ugly...beauty is in the eyes of the beholder and all that stuff Quote Link to comment
+Brenin Tegeingl Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 Ooh that's harsh. It is considering my other half was in on the wind up from the start , even the worms wouldn't let me kip with them. I should of known though , because if I ever tried straying for real, to say she'd have done a Bobbit is a understatment. Add would have read "One disowned husband in urgent need of a female with major surgical skills" Dave Quote Link to comment
