for my sister. She met him last week and says he is the most wonderful man she has ever met. He was visiting where she lives on a stag weekend. At the end of the evening he asked her for her e-mail address and she watched him send her an e-mail on his blackberry but it hasn't arrived. She is gutted. Maybe it was a wind up and he was only after one thing but my sister is sure that he was a decent bloke.

I do have his name, job and the town he lives in and am trying to google him. have found hit which seems to be him but you have to pay £20 a month to register to get his e-mail address. Can anyone suggest another way of finging him? My pc automatically gives me Google - what other search engines are there? Can anyone help me find my sister the man of her dreams?!

POTC · 23/10/2007 21:03

I'd try facebook and my space first

chocolateshoes · 23/10/2007 21:07

I suggested that chocspiders but her only e-mail is at work & she doesn't have access to the spam

could she go back to the place they met hoping he has gone there to find her to

ooohohhh i want a happy ending

chocolateshoes · 24/10/2007 18:31

Me too chocs. Prob is she lives in the place where they met - the other end of the country to where he lives - he was staying there on a stag weekend. My sister has had countless relationship probs and it would be lovely if it worked out for once. Haven't heard from her today so am guessing she hasn't got anywhere

chocolatespiders · 24/10/2007 20:14

did he mention where he worked?

wasnt there once a website to post random things, like someone you fancy on the train you get everyday but to shy to say

chocolateshoes · 24/10/2007 20:58

That's the website we need then! He told her what his job was but not exactly where he worked

try 192.com, anyone on the electoral role will show up there with their full address - you can then use that to find his ohone number on bt.com....assuming he isnt ex-directory and has asked to remain off 192.com.... good luck, keep us posted!!

chocolateshoes · 25/10/2007 15:01

Oh Kerri what a good idea - have searched but need to buy credits to get more info and my sister says she can't rememmber name of village where he lives just where it is near! arrrrggh!

OP posts:
chocolateshoes · 25/10/2007 18:51

have actually made some progress with bt.com & 192.com - thanks Kerri! However, it may not be good as there is a woman with the same surname living at that address He did tell my sister he was divorced but we don't know when so possibly she is no longer there....but maybe he was stiching her up all along. I'm pretty sure I've found his phone no....will have to see what my sister does next. Is there s a way of looking for divorce deatils on line?

Do you know where he was staying on the stag do? The hotel will have some details of his so they could pass on a message.

chocolateshoes · 25/10/2007 19:10

Lorayn - my sister says she does know the hotel where he stayed but reckoned they wouldn't give details out - howvever I don't know if she has thought of getting them to pass a message on. Good idea!

I'm currently searching the internet to see if I can find his divorce records but all the sites are fee paying.

Can you not ring them number to see if a lady answers if she does say you are doing market research for something? Then you will know?

chocolateshoes · 25/10/2007 19:19

oh I like your thinking LMG! Will ring sister & suggest

OP posts:
ChorusLine · 25/10/2007 20:10

Has she rang yet?

BroccoliSpears · 25/10/2007 20:14

Gosh. I'm hooked! Any news?

chocolateshoes · 25/10/2007 20:21

My sister isn't answering her mob - have left message. Its like a soap isn't it!

Would 't you know it - the only records you don't seem to be able to get are divorce records. I need to see if he got divorced (as he says) or not and if the woman at his address on the electoral register is still his wife.
