Valentine’s Day: Your great great grandmother on Match.com

Industrialist dandy looking for a lad who’s not shy about showing a bit of ankle. No fats or fems.

Or so my ad may have read had I been trolling for love during the day of Jack the Ripper and Jenny Lind.

The more things change, the more they stay the same. I feel for these love struck victorian lads, smitten after a brief passing on the street.

But a bit more “risk taker” than today’s love-sick, no?

After all, who could tell if the blue eyed girl with the spotted muff, spotted on 7th St, likes seafood or is willing to relocate.
