Hello there, contrary to my screen name I am not really Italian but thought that was a nice screen name. My given name is a bit more Scot light but I am not in the least bit scottish.Anyway, I thought I would post here and get a date or something. Let's not have any scabrous wits making silly comments because if you were really that funny you would be on IQ or radio 4. I like films and cycling. I am just under 6", way under but let's leave something exciting for the great reveal. I used to read a lot but not so much. I do like TV and talking and travel a bit. Anyway , drop me a private message if you are interested. cheers

Quite frankly with such a well-constructed, insightful and slightly mysterious introductory technique, I fear you are about to be inundated with replies from eager and willing Females. Its surely only a matter of time.


Hope you can handle the inevitable deluge.

I am laughing, but I still haven't got a date. Oh well. I wonder should I spread the net a little wider? 25 - 45 years of age? Well, it does not have to be a date, that's so American; Brits dont really date, do we? I mean we pretend we date but we are far too sophisticated for dating. I find a bit of banter over two glasses of red and you pretty much know whether you'd like to spend more time with a person or not. Is that March 13th of 2011? That seems a rather long time to wait. Not that I am in any kind of hurry. I thought the retired Hipsters of ED would be down with meeting someone over the internet but apparently that's not the case. I just have to return to the pub and wait for someone to stumble on me as they rush to the bathroom to vomit.
I don't know about the smacking thing, it seems a bit forward for a first date wouldn't you say? I am going for the personality track. I think, if I wanted a bimbo that would fall for a line in brilliant patter I would be on match.dot.com with my great looks and holiday pictures from Chamonix!

    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
