Speed dating couple to tie knot
 
From www.bbc.co.uk - Wednesday, 14 April, 2004,
 

A Hereford man is to march down the aisle after a three-minute performance that led to a lasting romance.
Mario Bassi is one of the first people in the UK to get engaged after meeting his other half at a speed dating event.

The system works by bringing together a group of singles who have just three minutes to impress one another before moving on to the next potential date.

Mr Bassi is to marry his fiancée Caroline later this year after meeting her at a session in London.

He said he impressed her by reciting poetry, claiming to make the world's best lasagne and drawing pictures of his sporting injuries on a napkin.

Their relationship blossomed once the pair met for a series of dates after their brief first encounter.

Mr Bassi, whose family still live in Hereford, plans to marry in August at St Francis Xavier's church in the city.

 

Certainly one of  Americas best exports! - I loved every minute of it. I came with a group of workmates and all of us had an amazing night. I will definitely be back if it doesn't work out with one of my matches"  

Anna, Balham

"I felt compelled to email and let you know how much fun I had last night, the people there were great and it was all so well organised" 

Russell, Wimbledon
