I found the event quite exhausting, because only 7 males turned up at the marriage event, where it was supposedly to be a ratio of 50:50.
I had to wait in a long queue for an hour,
i was in fact looking for a partner over 40 yrs but 98% where under 40 yrs. I was not happy at all.
i spent the whole day going to the marriage event, didn't have time for other things like listening to the nasheeds etc.
there were mostly charity stalls down stairs with a fair ground for kids. it looked like people were begging for pennies. I found it quiet embarrassing because every step I took somebody would ask me for "any change". It reminded me of Pakistan.
I got the train after a absent of 23 yrs, after this event i got back to the train station but got on the wrong train which i then ended up paying 42 pounds more.
I sort of blocked this event out of my head, didn't accomplish anything what a waste of journey.
