DATING SERVICE

Welcome to the LSF Dating Service, hosted by Fred.

Kermit the frog sang It ain’t easy being Green. Well, at least he wasn’t stuck in a fish bowl, swimming around for the amusement of a bunch of stangely coloured mammals.

The name’s Fred, and being the mascot of LSF, I’ve seen my fair share of LSFers hooking up and breaking up in my time, but what about me?! You know, I’m not that bad looking for a goldfish... the perfect shade of orange, not too big or too small, strong fins. I don’t smell, I’m tidy, I even have my own place, and go out to coffee nights. So why can’t I find a mate? And I don’t mean that wierd looking fish that keeps following me around the fish bowl. Sometimes I try to stare him down, but he just sits on the other side of my bowl staring at me.

So while I was keeping cool over summer at a MOSH event, I had a quiet word in the ears of the Grapevine editors. They are very nice people, I like them a lot-even though one seems to have a thing for a stuffed teddy bear, and the other wears a fish around her neck-hmm. They gave me a whole page with which to rant, and even permission to help myself and other single fish out there try to find a mate.

My problem is communicating to the other fish what I like in a mate. I get all scared and bubbles just start coming out of my mouth. Not a good look! Below you will find the Find My Fred form, just fill in the left side about yourself and the right side about the fish you would like to meet. My buddies at Grapevine will then try to match you with the fish of your dreams, and soon you too can be swimming in paradise.

Love Fred
