Dear Nick,
Thank you for booking a place at our next speed-dating event.
What to expect:
Speed-dating is a fast way to meet a new partner! There are twenty men and twenty women and you have just three minutes to talk to each person. After three minutes, if you like the person, put a tick by his or her name on your card. Then, move on and talk to the next person. At the end, give us your card. If you ticked someone who also ticked you, we will give you each other's email addresses.
A few tips:
Don't start every conversation with 'What do you do?' This gets very boring. And don't ask too many questions which can be answered with 'yes' or 'no'.
Ask interesting questions, like 'How would your best friend describe you?' or 'What was the last CD you bought?'.
When?
Sunday 19th May. Arrive at 6.00 p.m
Where?
Attica Club, 20 Hawkley Street, London.
Happy dating!
Julia Honey
Manager
