I will not be wearing my club vest, this is not a club run or a race.......and more importantly it does nothing for my complexion.
Warren - I hope you are taking this seriously and anticipating what you are going to be subjected to for 2 whole days with this beautiful woman. It would be a shame to show yourself up as a complete novice when it comes to the finer aspects of knitting, brass rubbing, flower arranging and/or chess.........I've seen this programme before.
I think you need to devise yourself a personal training programme so that you don't let yourself down in full view of the millions that will be watching (and hoping you will).
Apart from running, your chums have a whole range of expertise that they can pass on to you:
Growing root vegetables - Mr Turnip
Pruning hedges and bushes - Greg the Gardener
Drawing buildings and all the inside bits - Craig
Rally driving - or just driving like a maniac - Tucker
Bridge - Barry
Ballroom dancing - Barry
Photography - various
Tea and cake making - and consuming - Julian
Sheep rearing - Welsh Harrier and Colin
Darning and tapestry - Alan I
Rowing - Mandy
First aid - Janet, Angela
Gambling on the stock exchange - the 'Shares club'
Ironing - Kath, Nancy, Janet, Julie etc etc
....and shopping for shoes !! - as above
Just let us know, we are only to willing to help......unfortunately for you.
PS: A friend of mine was on Blind Date a few years ago and had a great time - mainly as he didn't get picked.
