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.

    • Blame me then as I will be voting for the Reform Party at the next general election after being a Conservative voter for many years.  Two tier Keir has just shot himself in the foot with his announcement about national insurance exemptions for Indian workers coming to the UK whilst he imposes the exact opposite on UK businesses.
    • I’m trying to organise a party for my teenage son and really don’t want to have to trek all the way to Goals in Beckenham. Does anyone know of any football pitches (Astro or concert) that you can hire on a Saturday?  thanks for your help. 
    • Wouldn't vote for farage and his lot, so don't blame me. 
    • Can't blame it just on Jazzer.  More than just one person to blame.  I'd start off with the Liv Dems going into coalition with the Tories.  But very much a six degrees of separation thing so we all must take a share of the blame 😔
