Blind date: ‘Most awkward moment? When she squished an insect that was on my forehead’

A composite of a man in a checked shirt and a woman in a denim jacket smiling side by side

Graeme on Holly

What were you hoping for?
Really, just a fun night with minimal awkwardness was my fairly low expectation before the meeting.

First impressions?
A very positive, engaging lady with a beautiful smile.

What did you talk about?
Growing food, the joys of seeds, birdwatching, the failings of young people when it comes to proper raving, epigenetics and breaking generational cycles.
