Host: Hey Dave, how was your

.
Host: Oh? Tell me about

Dave: Well, my friend Ross asked me if I would like to go on a

, but she sounded nice so I agreed to go. Ross arranged for us to meet at Bar Napoli the following

sitting at a table by herself, so I went over, asked her if she was called Emma and

. So, when I said I was Dave, she thought I was him! We had so much other stuff to talk about that we didn’t actually mention our

Host: Wow! What a
