Unfortunately the event was not great, the host was ringing a bell right up in people’s faces to indicate the date was over (4minutes) - super uncomfortable and super unnecessary. The whole thing was rushed. The location was awful so small and no atmosphere or vibe so they defo need to up the locations style wise especially considering the price because all you get is a pen and paper to write notes like I don’t know what the £22+ was for to be honest. At least offer a drink. The men pool was awful, unfortunately I think the women were so much better and were super let down by the options. I think there should be smaller age group sizes because huge gapes of 20 years for an event is BAD. There should be 20-30 or 30-40 etc not 20-40 as this date was. There should also be more people and again the people that came were not it. It was boring rushed and unprepared and not worth the money.
