Amy on Chris

What were you hoping for?

Love at first sight. Failing that, good chat.

First impressions?

Somehow we immediately got talking about football, so we had common ground.

What did you talk about?

Films, travel, being picky eaters, queueing for restaurants, architecture.

Any awkward moments?

I told him the amazing dessert seemed to be made of goat’s cheese. Chris doesn’t eat cheese.

Good table manners?

Aside from taking photos of the meal for Instagram, yes.

Best thing about Chris?

He was genuinely easy to talk to, and a good guy.

Would you introduce him to your friends?

Sure.

Describe Chris in three words

Engaging, easy-going, ambitious.

What do you think he made of you?

Probably that I talked too much.

Did you go on somewhere?

No. It was 11pm on a Monday.

And… did you kiss?

No.

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

I can’t think of a thing.

Marks out of 10?

8.

Would you meet again?

I wouldn’t say no.

First impressions?

Stylish and confident.

Places we’ve travelled, architecture, the food we don’t like.

Extremely interesting, passionate and so easy to talk to.

I don’t see why not.

Genuine, passionate, sophisticated.

What do you think she made of you?

Hopefully my five-year-old’s taste in food wasn’t too embarrassing to be around.

Nope – got the tube home.

And… did you kiss?

No.

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

Less goat’s cheese, more ice-cream.

Definitely – but only as friends.
