Dont know how that happened as it certainly wasnt posted by me as I am nearly 50 and would be in trouble with the family if I was to go off volunteering on my own - my kids think charity begins at home!!! I was the one who suggested a National Trust holiday in the hope of meeting some new rugged outdoorsy new fella ( Ive read too much Chick Lit obvoiusly!)

why are people (no offence) suggesting horse-back treks, conservation walks or national trusts packages?!?! :think: The girl is only young, she's not in her 50's!! :eek:

She needs to go somewhere where the weather is sunny and reliable (DEFINATELY not in the uk), educating (walking mountains isn't), with a wonderful culture and hundreds/thousands of years of history - somewhere she can take a guidebook and read everything about that city and for every corner she turns, she'll learn something new, exciting and visually breathtaking - ROME is the place to go!:T



p.s - yes, i love Rome, LOL:rotfl:

Excuse me! I'm in my 50's and I wouldn't want to do those things either!!!!:rotfl:

Oh, I don't know - I'm only in my 30s but I love walking over the mountains. You'd be amazed how many single, fit and healthy men are climbing mountains too...;)
