(Sorry, I have a lot on at the moment and there truly is nothing else to say. If you don’t believe me, .)
If you like this blog (when there’s a bit more detail going on, anyway), then please consider buying one of my books, or if you’re the kind of person who likes to throw coins in a fountain and make a wish, chuck some at me! No subscription or obligation, the blog remains free.
About the review and the daters: The comments I make are based on answers given by participants. The Guardian chooses what to publish and usually edits answers to make the column work better on the page. Most things I say are riffing on the answers given and not judgements about the daters themselves, they seem very nice, so please be kind to them in comments, replies, and generally on social media. I will not approve nasty below-the-line comments. If you reply to my tweets about the date, please don’t embarrass yourself. Daters are under no obligation to get along for our benefit, or explain why they do, or don’t, want to see each other again, so please try not to speculate. If you’re one of the daters, get in touch if you want to give me your side of the story. Equanimous. Okay. Cool.
Lucas and Lucía ate at The Botanist Sloane Square x Casamigos, London SW1.

D’: yep, nothing more to say
Fair enough ?
You are going as far as digestive biscuits? Should have been Rich Tea
That was SO wishy-washy, that I felt insulted as part of the Guardian readers and yours – what a waste of an opportunity. Your full review was absolutely spot on.
I shall now go to the kitchen, where I’m gonna have a 3rd espresso and a slice of ‘something really good’ to give that event some taste. 😉
Ta, gr8 short story on your side.
Agreed.
Came thinking what could you possibly say. Well done.
Impeccable
Were they matched because their names look good together?
I liked “He was very equanimous”.
