While renting our holiday villa to clients from UK  I have become aware of a need experienced by some mature single people, and maybe others, to be able to socialise without committment. This lady had stayed in several hotels and apartments in Lanzarote and would like the opportunity to chat at the end of the day with others on holiday without the implication of a continuing relationship. We came up with the name GROUP CHAT together but it does not appeal to everyone. 

A widower friend of ours explained that he could feel isolated on holiday because he had no one to share his experiences at the end of the day. It must be a fairly common experience and a solution could spread like TWITTER.

However the internet alone is not the solution and some publicity at hotels or on restaurant tables is needed to test what is effective. This was my first attempt. Volunteers to test the paperwork or hotels to participate would be welcome.

Hi There,

Yes Think this could be a good thing. Also for people who are new to Lanzarote are single and don't know anybody. As for myself I probably arrive next week for 3 months or longer and would like to know some people i could meet up with to chat and have a drink/coffee. I see this is an old post, has anything come out of this yet, or should I look at the Meetup site? maybe others who know of good sites, let me know. I am new and need some friends, and with that i dont mean facebook friends.

Dear Ingrid,

Many thanks for your response. As you noticed I have not had any response to my idea.

I hope you will be brave enough to try it out by printing the leaflet a few times, entering a date and time and posting it on the hotel notice board. Do let me know if it works.

Best wishes

Malcolm
