Personal: Speed Dating in Derby

This is going to be a short post: Why? Well, I’m pecking this entry on a SonyEricsson P800 phone, standing up on a crowded Midland Mainline train on the way to yet another Speed Dating event-this time in Derby (around 30 to 90 minutes on the train depending on the route). Just hope I have better luck than the last two times when I had no matches at all! Whether I’ve just been getting overconfident or something, I dunno.
