    Z - when you say frosted do you mean the glass is completely white? I was flicking through the channels the other night and one of the bid-up channels had some wine glasses which were completely white

    udate.com was good for me, met my OH on there. I was recommended it by a friend, who met her hubby on there.

    My mom went on some nice dates with a few men via datingdirect, after she'd been through a divorce and just wanted to date for a bit. Then she met her (now) hubby through there.

    You have to weed through the men on these sites though, there are certainly some undesirables :eek: I found them quite easy to spot, after chatting online to them a few times :cool:

    Not quite sure if they're painted - difficult to tell from the photo...

    the ones from bid.tv are more painted than acid frosted. I only saw them for a few seconds but they weren't sandfrosted.
