Date 10. Where do I begin? This was supposed to be a happy post where I recount the amazing 3 dates I've had with this guy. But here I am at midnight on a Friday with my headphones on listening to Marvin Gaye, in bed with a glass of vino having watched Bridget Jones Baby... Continue Reading →
Halleujah I got out of lockdown last week for my first date since lockdown. I followed the 'like who likes you' challenge from my last post and matched with someone who I thought I'd dated once some years ago. The sun was shining, our UK heatwave had us all out and excited. I even ordered... Continue Reading →
So one one of the new lockdown features are zoom calls. Work ones can do one, but it's actually been quite fun catching up with my girlfriends on a evening where we are all so bored of our own company we are happy to sit with the laptop with a glass of wine or cup... Continue Reading →
I came upon a piece of performance poetry on a friends IG story today, the title "Depression and Dick Appointments" got me interested. I watched and listened to this woman perform her verse, to the sound of what sounds like a New York audience cheering her on. Oh wait a minute, I know this story,... Continue Reading →
Two weeks ago I thought i'd met someone really interesting and new on Hinge dating app. We had a great first lockdown date, where we went for solo walks in our respective lockdown zones and talked and talked for the longest time. We then spent afternoons on the phone talking about our lives, families, hopes... Continue Reading →
So me and Mr Right Now are still chatting, which is a positive sign considering our first date could very well turned out to be a one night stand. Well technically it kinda is, as i've not seen him since Covid-19 took care of that matter. Lockdown has us all having to actually have conversations... Continue Reading →
As we are on lockdown I thought i'd start to write about some of my dating chronicles... Have you ever tried speed dating? A question one is often asked when lamenting about the online dating scene in London. Well just before Christmas 2019 I decided that in the spirit of the festive season my single...

First of all... Stay at home! Let's not get it twisted, as much as I was enjoying my new dating life - I enjoy living more and am not about to put myself at risk of the Corona Virus for a random date. Even if he isn't so random. That was the predicament last week.... Continue Reading →
After my lovely dates with Mr Law (dates 4&5), I still was not feeling any passion. He came with complications and a whole lot of responsibility (3 kids and not quite divorced) which if I we had 'clicked' may not have been an issue. I mean, dating in your 40s means he is likely to... Continue Reading →
So date five is a second date with the last guy I posted about... he suggested a date at a pretty swanky roof top bar, riverside in London. Yes, very nice indeed, I'm already impressed! Cocktails are flowing nicely and the live jazz singer is setting the scene, but I can't help feel that i'm... Continue Reading →
