Hi all. I'm currently 67 and retired and living in the UK. I first went to Ukraine to visit a lady I had contacted on the site "Elena's Models" in May 2009. The lady came from Krivoy Rog and, as there was no airport there, I decided to hire a car from Borispol Airport and arranged with a company to rent an apartment. I had no experience of driving on the right-hand side of the road and didn't know a word of Russian/Ukrainian but made it there and back (I'll never complain about the state of British roads again!). I had the idea that the apartment would be in a hotel/apartment-style set-up with a reception so really never found where it was or even who was supposed to let me in. In the end I found a hotel with an English speaking receptionist and stayed there. The dating came to nothing and I ended up getting a speeding "fine" on the way back. I have dated in Kharkov, Gomel in Belarus (ripped off) and Odessa. In 2012 I met up with a lady I had been chatting with for about a year on the site "Anastasia". We stayed together until 2016 when she married a local man but we have remained good friends. I still visit her and was privileged to be asked to be godfather to their daughter this year. I have now been chatting to another from the Anastasia site and would like to go back and meet with her in the New Year/ Christmas as well as celebrate with my friends. However, I have fallen foul of the 90/180 day law and when I left Borispol on 18th November, I had to pay a penalty for overstaying. Now I'm not sure I'll be able to get back in time.
