I'm on the lookout for people of all ages, looking to either meet that special someone or just out to make a whole new gang of friends. My nights usually have 20 men and 20 women so it's always a busy one!

I've got my own Speed Dating business so if you fancy a fun night, let me know. If you need more info on what speed dating is, please - just ask.

I'm also looking for venues to hold my events in - bars, restaurants or any other exciting venues such as gyms, theatres - anywhere really, please get in touch if you feel you have something to offer.

:D

Yeah sure I'd do it! :thumbsup:

Me too

:love:

Just to save face.. i'll take caprice out next week :D

Gap in the market? speed dating for the more mature .... (oh, ok then, OLDER ...) singles.

:D

would never have the nerve to do it though i'm sure it would be a good laugh:thumbsup:

uniq bar maybe interested in having a speed date night ring 0114 2738677.

I wouldn't go speed-dating, it's not fun. I was at the venue, as part of the staff :P, when one was held. My god. They aren't all locked up..

Ah, see this is where the proof is in the pudding. You have to aim the right events at the right people in the right places. I do different nights which include student events, the older generation events, certain profressions (such as events for accountants) and age groups.

I wouldn't say 'it's not fun' at all, it's a great way to at least meet some new people with similiar things in common with you (ie being single) and who knows who else may be there :love:

We could make it a forum event :D Ruby sweetie, you can come round mine to get ready :D yay! :clap:

I've been speed dating a few times and would go again.

I've been and met a group of 20 very nice, normal, well educated people and had some interesting conversations. Albeit far too short. Maybe your perception of normal is off!

I meant the conversations were too short, rather than the people...

I'll give it a try.....dont tell the wife!

;) ;) say nomore :hihi:

yeah I'm up for some speed dating. I did it once at Uni and that was quite good fun... but it's really all about the drinks afterwards once the people have had a chance to break the ice, then you can have a fuller conversation.

If you're still after a location, have you thought of The Lescar?
The room at the back would house a lot of people.

That's a great idea - The Lescar.

I'm starting to get the feeling that I'll be doing a couple of different nights, nights for students, nights for different age groups, nights for young professionals and nights for older professionals.

Still open to suggestions - keep em coming, thanks to everyone's so far!

The Lescar would be good for studenty evenings as its just off the main student area of Eccy Rd... I don't know what its like cos i've never been in, but I'd be up for a meet in there as its only down the road from me :)

(such as events for accountants)

Haha, that sounds like a joy, setting up accountants with accountants :D

yes what a good idea i would be the older end though early 40"s..:)

you've never been to the lescar:o... it's the ultimate pub experience, like all different pubs in England crammed into one....
Maybe we should meet up for a pint in there sometime?

(lol... how unsmooth was that...)

i think it would be a good laugh. i like the idea of different nights so you meet people with similar interests.

Would be so much fun! Hope not so cringey as it sounds :gag:

i know i was thinking that but would probably end up being a good laugh and you get to meet loads new people

Well worth the threat of embarrassment, i wouldnt be embarrassed but the guy who table i was dancing on drunk might be!

Speed dating is loads of fun (though it's actually more speed breaking the ice!) and makes for a pretty good night out!

I'd definately go, now that I am on the singles market again.

Try cubana on Trippet lane.

Have always fancied the idea of going to a speed dating event, but am scared stiff of going on my own (everyone I know seems to already be fixed up with someone). Plus all the events I've seen advertised seem a bit pricey. Any ladies ever been to one of these things by themselves?

I've been speed dating, once before, t'was the funniest night of my life!! i would def recommend it

Care to elaborate on that?

Crystal had a speed dating event the other week, it was brilliant! Really well done, loads of people there and and everyone seemed to be copping off by the end ;/

Well, lots of randoms in a room together, forced to make chit chat with one another...there were some real odd bods there..I went with 3 of my female friends, everyone was huddled together in their little groups to begin with, which is why we were half cut by the time we'd sat down (dutch courage) I was really nervous at first, but once you've 'dated' a couple of them, it's funny. Really random conversations...about cardboard boxes, 80s songs and motorbikes. A great chance to meet some freaks! There were 2 fit guys there but as I was in a relationship at the time, I didn't pursue these (I went along with my mates for moral u understand)...
