You will find that 3 minutes goes very quickly so you need to be careful not to end up just talking about yourself and not finding anything out about your date! However, don't make the mistake of interrogating or interviewing your date with a long list of questions! Although you may find out a lot about someone you are not likely to leave them with a particularly good impression of yourself! We suggest that you prepare a few set questions in case you get stuck at any time, for example, “do you have any favourite restaurants in Cheltenham ”. The key is to try and keep a balance between finding out about your date and giving them an idea of what you are like.
speed dating in Cheltenham will normally involve about 20 three-minute dates, with 30-second intervals to move around to the next table and make brief notes about the person you just met. After about 8 dates we stop the official dating for a well-deserved break. Get a drink from the bar and listen out for the horn which signals that the next round is about to start. The official speed dating part of the evening usually consists of three rounds after which you can stay in the bar to chat to others or rush home to input your matches and see your results coming in..
"Just thought I should say thank you for organising the event back in early August. Not only did I have a most enjoyable and fun evening, but most unexpectedly, I actually met someone I have embarked on a serious relationship with! Just thought you would like to know that your efforts have had some positive results!" Rob - Bath
"Just thought I would say how much fun the speed dating evening was. I actually met someone on the night and things are going really well between us. So to anyone thinking of trying it, go for it." Louise - Manchester
"Just thought I'd say it was a really good night. I'd tried speed dating down in London a few times but your company seemed much friendlier. Richard, HULL.
