Do you think I care?

 Jean Arthur

Marlene Dietrich

Top Cat

Apparently during the filming of A Foreign Affair, Jean Arthur argued with Marlene Dietrich over scene-stealing.

Let us view the scene, Jean Arthur was a moderately respected actress in the USA, few people can recall her films without Google, even then she is recalled as appearing with somebody. Marlene Dietrich is a name few movie watchers of the 40s - 60s can recall with ease.

In the cinema of the 30s to the 60s, there were few names more known, than Marlene Dietrich

A Foreign Affair

This Marlene Dietrich movie is about US troops running a black market in Germany,  and fratenizing after WW2. Fratenizing with the "enemy" happens all the time, I knew a man when I was in the Royal Air Force, who married a lady from Ireland, at the time the UK was being terrorised by the IRA.

I knew a sargeant, who married a lady from Malta, and one of my friends in Bristol Museum married a young lady from Korea.

I didn't realise this is the second film I have seen Jean Arthur in, she was also in "The Canary Murder case," with William Powell, and Louise Brooks.

I have had two affairs with foreign ladies, in 2009, I had a relationship with a lady from Canada, she died that year. Two months ago, I began my relationship with my friend, Svitlana, who is from the Ukraine

The Cold Hard Facts

The Cold Light of day

 The reason Bristol is more expensive to living in than London, is that the city has been run by a Labour council for many decades, and with no opposition, they have squandered millions of pounds on useless projects, as well as losing a big money earner in the Big Ships Festival, which moved to Gloucester.

Prices in London are higher, but so are the wages people earn.

For this reason, as much as trying to recover the money owed by Pamela Olsted, I will always by the "poor relative" in my friendship with Svitlana.

Svitlana is under the impression that my limited time online, chatting to her is because I am owed some money, which I hope to get back next week. This is partially true, also, I have to limit my time online as I don't have a lot of spare cash after I pay my bills

Brief Encounter

 Meeting Svitlana

Senior Railcard

Cash Shortage

My friend, Svitlana, is partially correct in saying th loan I have not been repaid is harming our friendship, and the growth of our relationship, another factor is the cost to me of keeping in contact on Charming Talks. It costs me £10 a night, for an hours chat. She is worth much more to me than that, but I can't keep paying out at this rate, even if I get my £3,000 back from the sister of scammer Pamela Olsted.

I don't wish to lose contact with her, but somethings are beyond my control. My money issues will probably mean I will not get the Senior Railcard I had planned to buy to pay for my trips to see Svitlana in Didcot, also I shall delete my info from the dating apps I was on. 

I will miss our chats, and it will take a long time to get over our seperation, even though we have not met, if this does happen, I have no plans to attempt another relationship.

Are ladies on Dating Apps paid by the site?

Granny

Sex with a Granny

I can't help feeling tha ladies on the Dating Apps I use are paid by the site.

My friend, Svitlana, who lives in Didcot, Oxfordshire, always seems to have an endless balance to chat, while I need to limit myself to an hour a day. Ihave tried to ask her to leave the app, so we can chat longer, but she keeps baulking on the idea, which fuels my thoughts she is paid by the site,

A Suprise ending to 2026

 Meeting in Didcot

Action Stations !!!

Meeting Svitlana

Today will begin the end of my time in hell. In November, 2025, I was contacted on Twitter, and later via WhatsApp by a lady calling herself Clara Kent, she turned out to be scammer Pamela Olsted.

By various means, she convinced me she cared for me, when all she wanted was my money. I was for a short period, under the impression she lived near me in Bristol. I stayed in contact, to give her the opportunity to prove she lived here, but it was soon clear she didn't.

By July, 2026, I had put her out of my mind, and resigned myself to losing the money I sent her, despite her saying she would refund me at some time. In September, 2026, her sister said she would repay the money owed to me, today, I am hoping this will happen.

I can finally put Pamela, and her family, out of my mind, and concentrate on meeting my friend   Svitlana in Didcot, Oxfordshire. Svitlana and I made contact on SoulmateMeets, and have continued our friendship on Charming Talks, we got on well from our first chat.

On a more personal note, today I will be going into hospital to have a lump removed from my neck.

I am popular with Ladies of Charming Talks

Svitlana

Despite the appeal I appear to generate among ladies on the dating app Charming Talks, I have eyes only for my friend from the Ukraine, who lives in Didcot, Oxfordshire.

Svitlana and I hit it off from the get go. Some of our chats involve sex chats, today's has been more about my upcoming neck opeartion to remove a limpoma.

Though I have over 60 ladies wishing to chat to me, I am only interested in Svitlana, most of the ladies live either in the USA, or the Far East

Another reason why I don't chat to the ladies is many are younger than my daughters, while some men find this a turn-on, I am not one of those. I prefer a lady closer to my age, from the 56 to 78.
