He’s setting up shop in Spitalfields Market next Wednesday – February 29 – and inviting single ladies to go and meet him.

You might think he’s a bit of a nutter, but his video plea encouraging ladies to approach him on the one day of the year that they traditionally can is pretty charming.

Thomas is a 35-year-old Welshman, who works in advertising and has been single for five months.

And since uploading his plea for the ladies to “surprise me, because if you do, I might have a little something for you”, he’s had 150 responses from women saying they’ll definitely be there on the day.

In fact, the unlikely lothario has had so many responses, he’s had to move his position from Liverpool Street Station to Spitalfields, nearby.
