Kate and Tom had met playing ten pin bowling and had signed up to be in a team together. They were good friends but had no romantic attachment.

One evening, they were celebrating their tournament win at the local pub, when Kate had overheard Tom talking to some of his mates. She heard him mention Hot Gozzip and then noticed that some of his friends had nodded their heads and smiled.

Later on in the evening, Kate asked Tom if he had ever rung the service. Tom said he was a regular caller and had spoken to and met lots of nice women. Kate asked him lots of questions about the service and then Tom urged her to ring for herself and try it out. He said it was easy, anonymous and that you could control who you wanted to talk to. He explained that you could even block people, if you felt they were not what you were looking for.

Kate decided to give it a go. She phoned one night, quite late and was astounded at how many men were on at that time. It took her ages to listen to all the guys. She chose a couple of introductions that sounded really good to her and sent messages to those guys, wondering if she would hear back. Straight away she received 4 messages from men wanting to talk to her. She spoke to them and then decided to meet just one, to see what he was like.

Kate met Tom again, at bowling, the following week and thanked him so much for his advice. She loved the fact that she could talk to as many guys as she wanted to, without making commitments to any of them. She told Tom that she was going to ring again that night.
