Let's call a halt to this ridciulous thread.
I have no interest in dating this or any other MPA. How anyone could conclude from my original post that I had any such intention is beyond me. I have seen Ashley once. I go to MPs about 3 times a year these days. I went more often before I retired. I am more than 40 years older than Ashley and happily married. I may never see her again, though I may if an opportunity arises. I thought that I had arrived at a harmless and even fun way to get some information to her that she asked me about. I made a mistake because many of you misinterpreted my intentions. Once that became clear I phoned Studio 9 and left her a message, as one of you said I should have done in the first place. I don't know if it reached her. I did not go to the concert I wanted her to know about. Pizzarelli is one of her favourites not mine. If I had gone I would have been there with my wife and another couple, who are visiting us from England, anyway.
When I saw Ashley it was a day when Italy were playing in the Euros, and it was very quiet at Studio 9, she thought for that reason. After the 45 minute session, she had no appointment following it and she stayed in the room for another 15 minutes asking me about the Festival and who was appearing and for any recommendations I might have. I asked her who she liked to get an idea which events might appeal to her. That was before the Legrand concert had to be cancelled because of emergency surgery so I did not know Pizzarelli, a favourite of hers, was on as his replacement. Hence my attempt to let her know before it was too late. Then as seems to happen on here very often the attacks began based apparently on so many people always being ready to believe the worst of others and assume their motives are discreditable. That may say more about them than about their "victim".
I hope this clears the air and we can all drop the subject and move on.
