i have a embarrasing date story, i was a 18-19 yr old homeless bum living on the streets of london when i met this woman whilst drinking myself into oblivion, we did the tour of central london food centres on foot when we got back around to traffalgar square at about 2 in the morning, i jumped into the fountain to collect my beers i had left in the top of the fountain whilst she stood there looking dumbfounded, i asked her if she wanted to come and sit on the fountain whilst it was turned off, she agreed but didnt want to get her feet wet so i offered to carry her across the water to the ledge, bear in mind i was drunk and not very sure footed on solid ground nevermind in water, so anyway she agreed, so i picked her up and proceeded to walk across the fountain basin, half way across i thought sod this and was debating whether to drop her into the water, i thought better of it and took her safely to the fountain ledge, we were both sat there having a drink and a chat when the fountains sprung to life and there was no escape for her, she was going to get wet, i grabbed my beers and ran to the pavement leaving her screaming at me to come pick her up from the fountain, i declined and pointed out to her she was already wet so wet shoes were not going to make much of a differance, she was not amused but yes i did get a second date.
