Dine to Meet featured in this week’s farmers journal. We’ve already had a really positive response to the article, which was in the popular ’BackChat’ section.

Thanks to the IFJ for their support!

1. Meet a wide range of single women.  
2. Dine to Meet has a waiting list of gorgeous, intelligent, professional single women.  
3. You know the ladies at the dinner party are all single so no surprise ‘boyfriend/husband’ talk at the end of the night! 
4. Dine to Meet profile the guests to ensure that all groups have common interests and are of similar age.  
5. It’s a relaxed, un-rushed atmosphere where you can enjoy a great meal and meet some interesting people.  
6. Dine to Meet offers a great alternative to the current dating scene.  
7. As a group of up to eight people, there’s no pressure of being on a one to one date.  
8. You’ll be having dinner with up to four women so there’s not just choice on the menu!  
9. No waiting list for male guests, once you apply we’ll be in touch with a date for your diary.  
10. Why not! Give it a try, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I attended the Irish Blog Awards on Saturday night in Cork. It was great to put faces to all the different blogs out there. Congratulations are due to Damien Mulley for organising it so well. 

 As I mentioned in my previous post Dine to Meet.ie sponsored the Best Group Blog. The winner on the night was www.dublinblog.ie a great collection of blogs about what’s going on in and around the capital.

 The overall winner of best blog went to Maman Poulet for her blog http://www.mamanpoulet.com/ an astute commentary on media, politics and life.

 Best blog post went to K8 the GR8 for her beautifully written piece on listening to an orchestral performance with her son. Definitely worth a read.

The finalists for the 2009 Irish Blog Awards have been annouced.

 Dine to Meet are sponsoring the group blog award. Congratulations to all the finalists!
