Blog-date

Nickopotamus and I met up for a pint last night. We (for the next week or two) live near each other, both volunteer for St John Ambulance, both want to go on to train in healthcare etc. and we've said several times that we ought to meet up. Well, yesterday we finally did.

It was weird - I got to the pub first, and waited for Nick (he was driving) in the car park. I felt like someone who was on a blind date - I wasn't completely sure I'd recognise him, or that he would recognise me, and was somewhat concerned about being stood up!

When he arrived, however, we recognised one another immediately (benefits of Facebook!), and pretty much immediately set about putting the world, specifically the world of St John, to rights, as if we'd known each other for some time (which I guess we had in a way, just never before in person!)

It was good to finally meet you Nick

  1. Haha, yeah, the blind date analogy is a good one. Meeting a scary man from the internet is something my mummy always told me not to do... ;)

    Was good to finally meet you too, and who knows, we could always end up working together a few years down the line!

  2. How weird. I always assumed you two knew each other of old. Hmmm. You're braver than me, I keep meaning to organise a bloggers meeting in the meatosphere, but it's very daunting!
