London lonelyhearts look for love in a bag

Got a pimple? It doesn't matter with this new type of dating. A quirky craze of "speed-dating with a paper bag over your head" has just been launched in London. The event debuted at the British Science Museum and, according to organisers, it's bags of fun. "It was a really good laugh," said Jacques Beaupierre, 24, a Londoner who attended the event. "It wasn't as materialistic as normal speed dating and you actually do get to know their personalities." Each participant wrote an amusing comment or personal fact on their bag to act as a conversation starter. Examples included "I have three kidneys" and "Secretly, I want to be a hand model."
