Weekly Review 1

Having decided a week ago to become more proactive in my approach to finding a relationship I can say, quite honestly, that I have done feck all this week towards achieving my goal.

I had some hopes of a seminar I went to on Wednesday as the topic was Climate Change And Its Impact on Construction and anything with the word "construction" in it generally means a lot of men will be present. This seminar was no exception. Unfortunately all the men there were either academics with food down their fronts or urban designers with frightening glasses and an inability to laugh at themselves.

One of the principal speakers had a hairstyle which, if adopted by all men, would be reason enough to welcome global warming on a catastrophic scale, as any species which thinks it's OK to leave the house with grey wire wool hair plastered across a bald patch, deserves to die out.

What I find really surprising is that these kind of people generally have wives who allow them to be seen in public looking like this. I once knew a librarian who was the spitting image of a leprechaun - short and squat with ruddy cheeks and a liking for tweedy clothes. So what does he do? Go to Selfridges and ask for a makeover? No, he decides to grow one of those beards that fringe the entire face and join up with the hair line. In the name of God why?

I have done nothing about re-registering on the Dating Site.
