That's a very interesting article. Which reminds me of an email I got a few months ago saying, "did you know some guy is using a picture of you on his Guardian Soulmates profile?" It's true! How he hoped to explain it if he ever went on a date, I have no idea. Unless he did actually look exactly like me and just didn't have any pictures to hand.

The height thing is about managing expectations though. I went on one of those t'internet dates once with a man who said he was 5 11. Now I am barely 5 3 so have no scope for comments on men of less than god like stature but in heels I range from 5 4 to a rather resplendid 5 8.... well I turned up and was considerably taller than him and I felt a little embarrassed and swapped to my flats to try and be sensitive.


If someone used my photo on a dating site I think I would be remarkably flattered, puzzled, but flattered.

That was certainly not the intention.


Well from the age of around 17, upon realising that I was at my final height, but unwilling to accept my diiminutive stature, I learned to walk in heels. I have been practising ever since and now I think I am rather good at it. I rarely wear 5 inch heels these days admittedly.

    • Absolutely gutted to hear that Dell Autos in Hansler Road is closing tomorrow. They have MOTed my ancient 1998 Micra for years, and have always been brilliant. Wishing them all the best of luck in their retirement. Wishing all their customers (including me) luck in finding another garage as honest, helpful, efficient and friendly as they were.
