Dating game

Last weekend when I went with my friend Ms B for a couple of beers, we met few people (mainly blokes) in the pub and had a bit of a giggle. Then we got talking on Tuesday about what had happened and a tall handsome man was mentioned. Ms B then confessed that she had exchanged numbers with him as he could not attract my attention long enough during my beer goggled merriment in the pub to give it to me himself. He then had texted her the next day and asked her to pass his number to me.

Ms B knows my aversion to romantic liaisons and thought wisely that she will not pass his message to me unless I mention him again. Well, I did mention that I remembered the tall bloke and he wasn’t too bad looking at all (that I remembered!). After Ms B had spilled the beans and after I had stopped laughing and had wiped the tears off my face, I took his number.

I have never actually properly dated and you can count the times in the past 40 years with one hand. Then I thought: "It’s actually about bloody time!" So I bit the proverbial bullet and texted the Tall One and we are actually going on a date this weekend (but we are yet to agree on the actual day of the date!).

It might end up being one disastrous drink, he might be a pig or boring or both, but I will give it a go. Watch this space and let the games begin ;)
