Finding Other Single Parents

So where do single parents find each other? 

Well there is the obvious route of blind dates set up by well meaning friends! These I do not take too seriously and consider them research time. I get to try out different restaurants that might be of use at a later date. I get to practise social skills like conversation and flirting (don't laugh, but it is worrying sometimes just how many people do not possess these skills). And it’s also a good excuse to buy a new outfit!
