  1. 1. So what should I do?

    • String them along for a laugh
      2
    • Politely advise them it's the wrong number
      1
    • Ignore it

So today, I recieved a rather peculiar text. It appears to be from a legit UK number. 

Hello Tom&Sue, my wife and l read with interest your ad in H&E Classified. We are a married couple who are considering 'couple swapping' with a like minded couple' Please feel free to contact us 'by txt in the 1st instance' for more details. We look forward to hearing from you both soon. Pete&Jenny xj

I should probably point out I'm not called Tom, and my wife isn't called Sue. I'd also no idea what H&E was, until I googled it (and it appears to be a naturist magazine). 

Question is, should I respond, and if so, how? ?

Please view my photos.

Of course you should respond:"Hello...happy to hear from you and we are certainly interested....You got our names incorrect but that is Okay we will get to know each other better once we meet."

Signed,

What about this:

Sorry, there was a typo in the ad, it’s actually Tom and STU. Is that still OK? This weekend good for you?

Ha ha, this is clearly an attempt to get the forum even lower than it is by having a swingers thread. ???

Don't mind me, just leaving my car keys in this bowl ...

I think that’s the old fashioned way of doing it. It’s all website this and App that these days. Or so I hear ??

Shall I reply to the text, and whoever has posted on this thread that lives nearest wins the prize and goes to meet them? ??

Yes, do that. Unless it's me. In which case ... ask for some photos first.

Reminds me of a "joke" I recently stumbled across. Pair of newly weds on their honeymoon night. She "Darling, I have a confession to make! I used to be a hooker!" Him "That's OK, bit of a turn on really" She "But darling, I think you misunderstand, My name is Billy and I played for Wigan"!   Kerching!!!!
