A workmate asked me would I make a foursome up with his fiancée's friend and I said I would. He described her as being very pleasant and attractive so I couldn't wait to meet her. I met them in Newcastle and I got the shock of my life when I saw her. She was 6' 2" / 6' 3" tall, head and shoulders taller than little me and I felt so uncomfortable all night and I was glad when the night ended. |

You may ask Island - I was a good girl who liked a good time and a good laugh and I still do. He remained expressionless from start to finish. |

You could be right there Island. Lumbered is how I felt so he probably felt the same. I took some persuading to make a foursome so he may well have been the same. |

You may not believe this, but I still have those drumsticks. They are well over 50 years old. (As am I). I found them when we cleared out the old family home about five years ago. |

The nearest I got to a blind date was when, at the age of about 16/17, I was asked to go to the pics with my friend to make up a foursome - she did not want to go alone. I knew my dat a little and was not keen but, being a good friend, I went along. What a boring evening - he had an old man's head on young shoulders at the age of about 18; no fun at all. |
