Hard to remember that far back - I did a few times I think, when I was young, no perhaps only once.
Nowadays with internet dating, I guess you cannot call it a "blind date" as you know a lot about the person by the time you meet (might be better the old fashioned way), and I guess people still go on blind dates when friends arrange it.
I don't particularly like the idea, as it would be awful if I really did not like the person and had to sit there for an hour with him! I have a problem being nice for any length of time with someone I do not like and occasionally I do not like someone for no reason that I can instantly name.
