![]() Are you serious? I'm confidently serious. Meeting people is exciting. I'm enthralled by the unknown and the possibilities this project opens up. Is this some big ego thing? Not at all. It's all about taking my life in a direction that's being laid down as I walk it. It's about the excitement and spontinaity. But that doesn't mean I don't want advertising on your website or by word of mouth. Let everyone know they could Meet me too! What do I get in return? You get to walk away having met one more person in the world which should surely be enough. But as I'm so kind, I'll give you a souvenir t-shirt to prove you Met me! Bearing the words "I've Met Matt Chapman" upon your chest, you'll proudly remember the day we met. What size t-shirt do I get? I've currently only got t-shirts in large size. But at the moment I'm not buying in bulk so if you're a beautiful skinny lady who wants a girl-cut small size, or if you're a beautiful larger bloke and want an XL size, let me know in time and I'll do my best. How do you choose who to meet? It all depends on where I can get to and which dates you are free. I will not make preference over gender, race, your beliefs or profession. If you want to Meet me, we'll make it happen. Will we keep in contact after we Meet? The entire idea of Meeting Me is to say that you've met me. I'd love to keep in contact with everyone I meet. But I'm equally enthused by the idea of a brief few hours where we cross paths never to meet again. Essentially it's up to you and what you're comfortable with. Will my name or photo be used on this website? Ideally I'd love to talk about everyone I meet. But if you're not happy with your name or photo finding it's way onto the Internet, make sure you tell me and I'll keep your identity secret. What will you do with my email address or phone number? I will never give this information to anyone. We will of course need to use email and phone to arrange to Meet, but be assured that your details will never be published on the Internet. How will you travel? I'll jump on a train, plane or coach. On one of those three methods of transport I can get to almost any place in the world. And one of those has to be close to you! How will I know who you are? I'll be proudly displaying my t-shirt. When we've arranged our meeting place, wait for me in my blatantly obvious "I am Matt Chapman" clothing! Can I bring a friend? Absolutely. I don't expect many people to be comfortable enough with the idea to Meet me on their own. So bring a friend, but make sure they know I'm meeting you and not them! When will you meet me? That all depends on where we're Meeting. I'll likely be travelling long distance so we'll have to arrange a time once I've checked travel options. What will we do? I always like to sit and chat. But you can show me around your town or city centre we can go for a drink or sit in a park. What do you do when you meet new people? What constitutes meeting me? Throw on your nice new t-shirt and wear it proudly for me in a photo! That's the only way I'll get proof that we've Met. Do I have to get you a present or buy you a pint? No, of course not, but I'll be travelling miles to see you. Perhaps a pint of your local ale or a sample of your local cuisine would help break the ice. Can I come to you? By all means! It's always great to have guests. I can show you around my historic home town and take you to the best pubs! |
