Hi,

So from a quick search through this board, I notice that 'Help me find' posts aren't exactly unique, but maybe my one comes with a twist.

A bit of back story, on the night of May 1st, I was walking across a bridge in Kilkenny City, Ireland, when I passed a group of American ladies, who were admiring the beautiful full moon that was shining above Kilkenny Castle. They asked "Isn't that moon just spectacular", which prompted me to stop and agree, and we then struck up a conversation. I asked if I could guess what part of the US they were from, so with a laugh, they agreed. After ruling out the southern states, I went with Ohio (which didn't go down very well with them, so apologies to all reading this).

But they saw the funny side of it, informing me that they were actually from Connecticut, and I struck up a conversation in particular with one of the girls. We spoke for about 5-10 minutes about numerous things, including how she somehow manages to support the Yankees in baseball, but the Patriots in football. We laughed and joked with each other, and she just seemed like a super cool girl, like really fun.

Anyway, here's where the story gets interesting. Right at this time, a guy on the bridge, falls over the side of it, and plummets 30-40 feet into the water below.

As you can imagine, everything in the area suddenly gets pretty frantic, with police running to the scene, and people from all over running over to try and help.

At this time, my attention is pulled to the guy in the river, and the efforts to ensure he gets out. After 15-20 minutes, I'm not sure how long exactly, thankfully he emerged from the river relatively unscathed.

At this point, I realise that the girls from Connecticut are no longer on the bridge and have moved on. I was pretty gutted, as I felt that we had kind of clicked, and I would have loved to have had the opportunity to ask her if she fancied grabbing a drink, or even asking for her number so we could stay in touch later.

I have no idea if she is still in Ireland, or if she has returned home, and I know there are a lot of people in Connecticut, so the chances of finding her are slim, but hey, the Internet helps make this really big world of ours, just a little but smaller, and who knows, if she, or someone she knows, was to see this post, maybe we could get in touch.

So ye, I would never usually do something like this, but she was extremely cool, and given the unforseen circumstances that prevented me from asking for her number, I would sure love if you guys could help me out some with this. If everone who saw this shared it with two other people from Connecticut, the chances of her seeing it are not zero.

Obviously we live on opposite sides of that big ole Atlantic Ocean, so this isn't about dating or anything like that, but it would be cool if we were able to stay in touch in some way, a pen pal across the Ocean as it were!

Thanks for reading,

Irish guy from Kilkenny

Hi all - My girlfriend and just moved to Stamford and she needs a new hair stylist. Happy to travel wherever and pay whatever for the best option.

Very important notes/context from her:
- I have medium thick, straight hair so the bottom gets puffy when they cut it blunt and it’s so bad I can use it as a paint brush
- GOAL: Someone that can cut straight hair and not leave it blunt on the ends

If anyone has anyone that they love and generally would fit this criteria, I’d love if you could point us in the right direction! Thank you in advance!
