Philip on CarolWhat were you hoping for?
Reciprocated love at first sight (I don’t ask for much in this life). To meet a kindred spirit who might even become a partner.First impressions?
We were both incredibly early, but caught the other’s eye and smiled. It was a nice moment.What did you talk about?
Andy Burnham. Elvis Costello. Dogs. U3A groups. Trains to Italy. The deficiencies of dating apps. The pointlessness of shyness in later life.Most awkward moment?
There weren’t any. Carol sent her G&T flying, but that was just funny, not awkward.Good table manners?
