We met online and started emailing each other, after exchanging over 170 emails in the space of a week and discovering we had so many things in common we decided to meet.

Eschewing advice about meeting in public places we met up at bohopixie's house with only her easily overpowered flatmate to chaperone.

Suffice to say the easily overpowered chaperone chose, perhaps wisely, to sleep downstairs for the entire duration.

Love rapidly blossomed and we have now planned a second date for the following weekend prior to bitscruffy moving lock, stock and barrel to Plymouth to be with his new found soulmate.

Although, bitscruffy intends to rent his own flat initially, we're romantics not idiots.

Not so much love at first sight as love at first type.
