Daniel on Cecily

What were you hoping for?

A fun evening, and a story to tell the family.

First impressions?

Really pleasantly surprised: she looked pretty.

What did you talk about?

Deep-fried Mars bars, cream teas, skateboarding and dog-sitting.

Any awkward moments?

We shared an Uber on the way home and the driver asked me to get out at a red light: that was quite an abrupt ending. We also car-pooled with a stranger, so I can only imagine the chat after I got out.

Good table manners?

We were chatting so much, I didn’t notice.

Best thing about Cecily?

She was so easy to talk to and has a great smile.

Would you introduce her to your friends?

I don’t see why not.

Describe her in three words

Chatty, fun, friendly.

What do you think she made of you?

I think she liked the Scottish accent.

Did you go on somewhere?

We were aiming to go on to a bar, but it was late, so we decided to call it a night.

And... did you kiss?

No.

If you could change one thing about the evening, what would it be?

That we’d found that bar.

Would you meet again?

I’d like to.

Cecily on Daniel

What were you hoping for?

Good company and a fancy meal.

First impressions?

His strong Glaswegian accent. I had to concentrate quite hard to understand him.

What did you talk about?

Adulting, the fact that he is a chocolate scientist (every girl’s dream) and the rules of cream teas: jam or cream first?

Any awkward moments?

He was chucked out of the Uber to get his train.

Good table manners?

Impeccable: he left a tip.

Best thing about Daniel?

Did I mention he gets free chocolate?

Describe him in three words

Scottish, polite, reserved.

What do you think he made of you?

I think I may have talked too much so, potentially irritating.

And... did you kiss?

No, just a hug.

If you could change one thing about the evening, what would it be?

There would be more options for a post-dinner drink.

Marks out of 10?

7.

Who knows? He sent me a wave on Facebook.
