Why is it that every weekend I grab a copy of the Cyprus Today and see images of ladies enjoying yet another coffee morning while us poor men sit at home preparing dinner, washing up from the night before and sorting the laundry out.

Its about time we organised a Cyprus44 men only coffee morning every Saturday so we can have the opportunity to exchange recipes and catch up with the Girne gossip.

Perhaps you'd like to include raising money for worthwhile charities which

many of the coffee mornings do. They are not just for men and many men

do help as I saw on one I went to last week. You poor hard done to man!!

Infinity,



Why bother with the coffee.

Get your wallet out and send a cheque to SOS.

Isn't that what coffee mornings are for?

I totally agree, lets have a cyprus44 men only coffee morning and raise loads of cash for worthy causes, we can even develop our own dodgy handshake and design a logo and wear a gold ring on our little finger.



i think the first meeting should be tomorrow night starting at around 9.30 at a secret location with sky TV and copious amounts of Efes, whoops I mean coffee!!

Dr astab,



Ok youv'e made your point. You did with your name anyway!



Lets save on the coffee and Efes! Whatever you donate to a credible charity, I, and I suspect

others from this board, will double. Lets see it!!!!!

Poor and not proud, but can still find time to do a bit for charity, I will admit I am not very competiive when it comes to a challenge regarding my finances, I would not like myself or anyone else to be put in a position of offering 5, 10, 20, 50 or 100 + to try and keep up with the wealthier members of the board.

Dr Estab,



Wealthy? Talk to my builder. He has all my money!

Just a man of principle with a moral outlook on life. No secret societies, no secret handshakes.

no rings on my little finger.

If i've got time to waste, I try to do good with it! As do most decent people.

I guess we've made our point!

I think the title of the thread "Mens coffee mornings "help needed""

says it all.

You definately need help.

Hi phylray,



You can't cook Dr Etsab some fairy cakes, can you? Seems appropriate!
