A dwarf took his fiancée to a restaurant for a romantic meal and was handed a children's colouring book and crayons by a waitress.

James Lusted, 26, who is just 3ft 7in, was on a date with his 5ft 7in fiancee when the waitress picked up two menus and some crayons and a colouring book.

It was only when the waitress heard James's deep voice that she realised her embarrassing blunder.

But it was the highlight of the night for James and his bride-to-be Chloe Roberts, 20, who have been laughing about it ever since.

James said: "As I said thank you to the waitress she heard my voice and knew I wasn't a child.

"She immediately put the colouring book behind her back in shock. But I am man enough to see the funny side - I would never take offence."

James and Chloe said they realise they look different when they are out together in Cardiff where she is a third-year education student.

But the pair say their miss-matched heights make no difference to them and they are getting married in the summer of 2016.
