This will help you to keep track of the singles that you would like to meet again and perhaps go on a date with. After a short period of mingling, your host for the evening who will run through detailed instructions and give you your starting position if you are a guy or table for the event if you are girl.</span></p> </div> <div class="od-pane od-hiw-step2"> <h3 class="od-hiw-step-heading">Meet & Mingle</h3> <p><span>A Derby speed dating event is split into two halves, each lasting around an hour, there will be an interval at half time of about 15 minutes. You will have between 4 and 5 minutes with each person, after which you need to tick a box on your score sheet - "yes, I would like to meet this person again" or "no. Thanks but no thanks". Or "friend" if you'd like to get to know them platonically. Make sure that you do this after each date to keep track. Afterwards there is an opportunity for everyone to meet and mingle informally - this is often where the real action begins, so make sure you don't disappear too quickly!</span></p> </div> <div class="od-pane od-hiw-step3"> <h3 class="od-hiw-step-heading">Complete your score sheet</h3> <p><span>After the event you simply tick who you liked on the Original Dating website and the site works about your matches automatically.
