At least not if you are working at Publicis Dialog! Why, you ask, is One-to-One Marketing not a lonesome art, full of distorted egos, rivalry and has every man fighting for himself? Not with us. Our agency encourages bonding, and the thought that anyone could remain lonely on Valentine's day sent shivers of pity down the spines of our Senior Management. Their sympathetic nature led them to initiate a "Blind Date" night on Thursday and and saw them flying in the mother of all matchmakers, Cilla (picture altered for privacy reasons), to bring our few willing and countless unwilling singles together. Like the stern but gracious fairy she is she pursued her given task relentlessly and in complete disregard of obstacles like marital status, height or age differences, forever staying true to her principle "Only love counts" and it is found in the most unexpected places.
Unfortunately (or some may say: thank God), the whole spectacle ended before me and Ian could win a romantic date at Blandford's Greasy Spoon - although Ian did have all his answers prepared. I guess we will have to wait for the next year to start our little romance. Until then: let's concentrate on THE WORK my little cupids!
