Noooooo. Don't go for a meal!! Just stick to a one hour drink and that way you bother have a get out without having to make excuses. If it goes well you can always do food next time. She might be a right swamp donkey and you are gonna be stuck trying to eat and keep your food down everytime you look at her!! It would be the longest night ever!

Of course there is also the risk that over the course of the meal and associated imbibement your reaction softens from "eeew" to "yeah baby lets get it on", resulting in you waking up next to a wookie, probably a long way from home, with a hangover.Originally posted by northernladuk View PostNoooooo.

Apart from the obigatory <<canned laughter>> and Frank Spencer voice I hear when I read these threads....Originally posted by Wilmslow View PostThe lady has suggested a meal, later on in the evening so we can drop our cars off and get the train into Manchester for a nice long evening.
Does the quote above not seem a little weird for a first date especially one with someone you've met on the tinterweb.
Both drive to restaurant in sep cars, neither can drink (ok, fine)... And then train into the city meaning you both HAVE to return to the same place regardless of how much of a nightmare it was. Why would she suggest that?Comment

Wear your mankini. She'll make her own mind up what happens next.Originally posted by Wilmslow View PostNow, I am hoping we get on well in person, but, I could do with an escape plan if this is needed.Comment

Won't you
find it difficult to find a restaurant that can accomodate her guide dog? And won't your style be cramped as she will have her carer with her?Originally posted by Wilmslow View PostGot chatting with a lovely sounding lady on an online dating website, things have gone quite well over the last few weeks.
We are going to meet up this evening.
Now, I would prefer a quick drink at a bar to see how we get on.

My head is rather clogged up with hayfever – will not be on top form, any ideas for getting this sorted out? A steam room would cure, but sadly no time to get to the health club before we meet up.Comment

Because her boyfriend is into nicking cars, and when they both return there, Wilmslow's will be gone. Although who would want an 8-year-old Mondeo Estate? Takes all sorts I suppose!Originally posted by Pondlife View PostBoth drive to restaurant in sep cars, neither can drink (ok, fine)...
