OMG that man on the tube bit was getting so exciting I was sure it was about to happen! But may be next time. Perhaps this is one benefit of hot flushes - nature's was of expediting things?!! I admire your persistence and look forward to hearing about when it works out!

Ah, early days! (Well, in terms of your experiment, I mean.) Sorry Covid in family ruined your weekend. Hope on the mend and back on track.

Very entertaining read, as always, thanks, Francis.

A thoroughly entertaining read, as ever Francis!

You’re only five days in, you’ve been swiping on apps for six years, give yourself a chance!

However, I may have spotted a problem:

“ … he leaves me to lug the heavy bags from the doorstep rather than placing them inside for me. I still tipped him, though.”

We must ‘discuss’ this personality trait 😳🤦🏻‍♂️🚨🚨🚨🤣😘
