geckoqueen Posted November 23, 2005 Author Share Posted November 23, 2005 LOL, think opposit sex comes as standard. No guaruntees on the calibre yet. I was thinking more along the lines of location, dates/days etc I haven't actually confirmed the charity yet, though do have one in mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geckoqueen Posted November 26, 2005 Author Share Posted November 26, 2005 Right... things are starting to take shape... I am in serious talks with a pub but it looks like it'll be a work night and is probably going to be January now. I'll have a proper date as soon as I can, so please speak now with preferences. Also, I have the fundraiser pack from Cancer Research here. As soon as I have some further details I'll be sending it off to them. So, some requests: - attendees/potential attendees please PM me your details - Is anyone willing to volunteer to help out on the night? - Can anyone put posters up when I have them? or any thoughts on where to put them?

sallie Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Hi geckoqueen, i might sound a bit thick, but what is speed dating!!? not heard of it before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geckoqueen Posted November 26, 2005 Author Share Posted November 26, 2005 Its basically an event for singles where there's the same number of men and women (in this case between 10 and 15) and they take part in short 3 minutes dates. It means that you can learn about a person and decide if you like them, but if you don't click then you don't have to sit being polite for an hour or so. At the end of the 10-15 dates you decide which ones you want to meet again and if they want to meet you we will exhcange your number/email and you can take it from there.

sallie Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 sounds like fun:) like the idea that the date only lasts for 10 minutes !! means you can get out of it quickly if you want to:thumbsup: !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geckoqueen Posted November 26, 2005 Author Share Posted November 26, 2005 sallie its 3 minutes a date, and don't forget the other bonus; 10 - 15 dates in one night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sallie Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 cool, 3 minutes, even better!!but do you reckon its possible to work out if you like someone in 3 minutes!!?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geckoqueen Posted November 26, 2005 Author Share Posted November 26, 2005 They reckon in job interviews the first 10 seconds are most important as this is when impressions are formed so yeah you probably can. You can probably answer a lot of important in 3 minutes, the thing is to know whats important to you, e.g. politics, music, hobbies before you go but not to use the time as an interrogation. Its quite popular, in fact I came up with the idea because my friends and I couldn't find a decent speed dating event when I was single. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
