It's weird, I keep getting the opportunity to do it - that's the third time I can think of (not in Asda before though). It must be my purpose in life.

You should really tell us every minute detail of this date you're going on, so that we can explain to you how to conduct yourself, and generally stick our beaks in. And possibly nawse things up with our sage advice.

If your purpose is being nice that's not a bad ask. Or you could just be an all round nice person. Either way it's good.

I will fess up details. Must go to shop, outta milk and baccy!

Fess-up details.

The lady in question approached me online a couple of weeks ago. She is 2 yrs older than me, witty, smart, amazingly compassionate and has eyes I could get lost in.
She lives on the south coast and rather foolishly has agreed to meet me next weekend once the crimbo stuff has all died down.

Looking forward to it - big, big - and I find my nervous teenage flutters a bit 'ya, daft bugger' and 'ahhh' in equal measure.

I'd best start working on my chat-up lines.

Is it too early to start getting ready? What to do with my hair?

Great, looking good then it all goes Crying Game on me.

Guys! Guys! I is well chuffed. I've been chatting with this nice young man on tinterwebz for a while. He's a couple of years younger than me and has a wicked sense of humour. He tickles me pink so he does. Anyway, he blathered about having to take part in some consumer ritual this week but has agreed to meet up with me once he's had his fill of worshipping Boots and Marks and Sparks
Hopefully I might actually get a bit of cock

I've picked out me outfit, tiz the same one I wore when I went on a date with Ryan Giggs....what do yous think?

i think you're gonna get a face full

Oooooooo I hope so

Well done you giving that money back, have some Christmas kisses (do we have mistletoe on here?)

Cheers.

We don't need mistletoe, Jhado. You know that.

Tremendous, Hugo.

I should just comb your hair - don't be tempted to do anything fancy like ringlets or pig tails Dubs dislikes them so it'll be wasted effort.

Don't get ready too soon - you'll be as pungent as a ripe stilton if you do it days in advance.

It might be an error to plan your chat-up lines in advance - just be natural (but not so natural that she catches you chatting to your imaginary 6' octapus friend).

She sounds rather wonderful, and obviously a good judge of character, or she wouldn't have agreed t meet you, so I hope it goes great and set your heart a-flutter!

I concur

I concur too, hugo. Some tips:

Don't do this even if you are tempted, at least not until after dinner

Don't eat too much if you are nervous

Be your usually friendly funny charming self

Don't vent on first date or talk about past relationships

Don't dominate the conversation and especially don't have anything rehearsed because you will probably blurt it out when it least makes sense.

Let her see what a loyal and wonderful person you are



And I think you will have a crazy good time

Lovely post nosey

I advise Hugo to just be his natural self on this all important first date, so the woman is under no false illusions.

Take her down the boozer, ply her with stella, kebab at kicking-out time then back to yours for a shag if she plays her cards right

Nice to hear some old skool coming though there DG... or maybe it's just cuz we is old that I like it

Thai brides, hopefully with no sausage surprise
