A British man's first impression of his blind date with an Australian was that she was 'very smiley and chatty'. The two quickly discovered they had much in common, including their love of tiramisu. However, the evening didn't start off well as he admitted to being 'sweating quite a lot for the first five minutes'.
Despite the initial nervousness, Daniel found Isla easy to talk to and enjoy her company. They shared several laughs over their jobs, differences in British and Australian humour, and even managed to cook a hotpot together, despite forgetting table manners.
Isla, on the other hand, was struck by Daniel's 'lovely eyes' and warm nature from the moment she sat down. The two quickly discovered they had a lot of common interests, including cult comedy shows, lido swimming, and side gigs (Daniel runs pub quizzes, while Isla DJs).
Interestingly, neither of them found any awkward moments during their evening together. However, they did agree that table manners don't apply when eating hotpot – aprons are provided for a reason!
In the end, Daniel described Isla as 'friendly, humble, hardworking', while Isla thought he was 'friendly, humble, hardworking' too. Both would definitely introduce each other to their friends.
The evening ended on a high note, with both Daniel and Isla agreeing they had a very pleasant time together – though not quite as pleasant if they hadn't been meeting on a Monday when they were both tired from busy weekends!

. Can you imagine having to go out after a weekend of binge-watching Netflix and getting zero sleep? I'm surprised they didn't have a meltdown or get hangry 
. I mean, who forgets table manners when eating hotpot?! Just great, now Daniel's gotta give Isla his number...and she'll probably be the one texting him all night with awkward questions 
.
this blind date is like a rom-com in real life - who needs fancy restaurants or candlelit dinners when you can cook hotpot and laugh about it? I'm low-key impressed that Daniel's nervousness didn't ruin the night, he sounds like a chill dude 
. And omg Isla knows what she wants, no aprons necessary when eating hotpot lol 
.
they just clicked so hard, despite the awkward sweating moment at first. its great to hear that they have common interests and shared laughs over funny stuff like cult comedy shows & pub quizzes. table manners are definitely not necessary when eating hotpot lol... aprons are a must! monday evening can be tough, but it's awesome that they were both honest about being tired from busy weekends. might just give me some hope for my own dating life 
. I mean, who doesn't love tiramisu?! 
and cooking hotpot together? that's some quality bonding time right there 
. anyway, I'm so glad they had such a great time together and got each other's numbers 
. maybe they can even start a cooking club or something? that would be awesome! 
Daniel runs pub quizzes? I need to know more about that btw 
and I love that aprons are provided for hotpot it's like the universe is saying "hey guys, we got this" 
So I'm thinkin' what's the secret to a successful blind date? Like, it's all about vibin' with each other, right? 
These two, Daniel and Isla, they just clicked on so many levels - shared interests, same sense of humor... and let's not forget the food! Who knew tiramisu could be the icebreaker that brings people together? 
just saw an article about this british guy who went on blind date with aussie girl and they actually hit it off lol aprons for hotpot are everything 
It's great to hear that they both felt comfortable around each other and had no awkward moments... fingers crossed for them! 
. I mean, who needs fancy features like AI-powered match-making or in-app video calls when you can just meet up and wing it? And don't even get me started on the lack of conversation topics... "we had a lot in common" is not exactly a detailed review
