I made a new friend.

I was in a taxi home on Saturday. The nice, slightly elderly driver asked me where I was from. Upon learning I was Swedish and had lived here over 6 years, he commented that 'well you must have broken a lot of heart here then love?' 'Er, no' I responded politely. 'Oh, do you not have a boyfriend then?'

Not quite the same question, is it? Anyway...

'You should lose him and get with me instead, love', he said. I could only laugh, whilst hoping he was joking, and looking through the window to make sure he was in fact taking me home.

He proceeded to tell me he was a single man, and did I know any other Swedish ladies in York?

At the end of the ride he also gave me his number.

Get in!
