This was an example of my attempt to try and not be fussy. He was a reasonably good looking guy, but 48yr. He owned a barge which he worked on, so plenty of opportunities for pub crawls along the canal. He was quite an outdoors person (had recently been skiing)and reasonably interesting.
He did however ask to meet at Weatherspoons (cheap skate alert!). The chemistry wasn’t really there. He was another landscape gardener. He was off to do a quote for some fencing following our date, which wasn’t an issue, but driving off in his van after 2 pints, definitely was.
He asked me if I was interested in a second date (ego boost), but I replied to say not romantically…next!
