Firstly, be minded that this forum is not a dating agency.
Second, surely you realise that car sharing with strangers is currently out of the question.


But, if your search is genuinely for walking company, I suggest you join Ramblers. Ramblers official walks are still permitted being considered 'organised exercise/sport'. There will almost certainly be a group near you. You will have to make your own way to the start of the walks and currently we should all be staying local anyway. Check out Ramblers website for details.

Coming on here and insulting a long standing and respected member isn't going to make you any friends.  Suggest you now go elsewhere.

Jac's response was totally relevant. Sussamb's was as well! Goodbye

Perhaps therealgooner just isn't a morning person.  Someone make him a coffee and he'll be as nice as pie.  :-\

To the OP: Your first post was awfully similar to that of a recent one by Lostboy90, who I suspect we are not going to see on here again, and there has been a constant trickle of new members in the past who started with requests for companionship.

So perhaps you can now see why you have been viewed with suspicion.

Speaking personally, I think your username suggests you may not be all that you purport to be, but that's just my opinion and I'm happy to be corrected if I've misjudged you.
