If that is not being obnoxious what the hell is ! No I did not. The most I said was that accompanied men were less likely to be gawpers. I never said that all single men were gawpers and I have never used the word pervert. Icarus says that there are clubs which accept single men so go to them. Leave the couple and family orientated clubs to those who prefer them. I am not saying that all clubs must be the way I prefer them. Why do you feel you can demand that they are all your way? What's wrong with choice? If single men are not a problem then explain the many very negative reports (not by me) of the UK beaches. N |

You accept they don't want you but they must stop advertising for new members to shut you up. What difference does it make to you? Either way you're not getting in. ..
