I said "Well why don't you go and find one then." I have brown eyes... I think that was the same bloke who said he couldn't pronounce my name so he would call me Christine instead...

If you are a white girl and de surcroit french, you get about 10 marriage proposals a day, whatever you look like. And I'm only counting the serious ones. In Italy though, in Roma to be precise, it was pretty nice to be called Bella or Bellissima all day long in the streets, with a nice smile on top but not too pushy behaviours... As for New Zealand so far, I haven't experienced anything close to drague in my last 3 years here so I cannot tell if it is because a/I'm already past my prime at 31 b/ not their type c/ escorted most of the time by by my 6"11 tall boyfriend d/ as true anglo saxons they don't drague :lol: The worst drague I have ever experienced was in Senegal.

I had forgotten the cigarette thing! I remember a few people who smoked 1 - 2 packs a day but never, ever bought their own. I lived in France for a while but it was many many years ago.

We try to please. And the pics have improved lately. PS One of the few merits of ageing is that Christmas, etc (mostly etcetera) CAN take a long time. It did.
