What was the best date you ever went on?
My first date with a girl (can't remember the date) called Pamela, who was a customer of the Bank at which I worked. She had been in one morning to cash a cheque, and there was something about her that made me go and look up her address and 'phone her.
The evening was just 'magic'; I shall never forget it. It was the first time I had been to a Pub in England, and had been invited to stay behind for a 'lock out' (A lock out is when they close the doors at closing time, and a few stay on behind still drinking, but not paying for the beer.
When I finally took her home, I stood on the porch, and kissed her. Somehow, I just couldn't stop, and she didn't seem to want me to. I can remember it as if it was yesterday; there were stars in the sky, it was a cold night.(I must have been there for at least half an hour). Talk about romance!!!
To a Pub (bar) not far from where she lived.
Talked, talked, drank, talked.
How well did you know your date before you went on the date?
Not at all; just from that first time she came into the branch where I was a cashier, and from the 'phone call (I was astounded at her agreeing to go out).
What did you learn about your date?
That she was a lovely girl; he had had a hard time in life; had been engaged (on and off) to the same guy, and this was an 'off' period
What did you learn about yourself?
That I could be drunk under a table by a slip of a girl.
(she introduced me to "Carsberg special" lager (
Producer: Carlsberg-Tetley -
www.carslberg.co.uk
ABV: 9.0%
!!Country of Origin: Denmark) I'd forgotten how strong it was.
What, if anything, would you change about the date?
Nothing.
Did you date the person again?
Yes, on and off for a couple of years, bust mostly as 'just friends'
Did you marry the person?
No. Soon after I met her, she made it up with her fiance. But I saw her regularly until I got married.
My regret:- That I got hooked on "Carlsberg Special"..........:biglaugh:
