No idea who it was, and the promised (and hotly-anticipated) call never came.

That would be the lovely bloke sitting on my left at dinner! We sort of decided to choose (atleast 1!) FTer each and text/call. And since this mysterious bloke and I both had your number, he 'got' you and I had to 'do' someone else.
But after about 20 pints there wasn't much ability to grip a phone let alone find a number. So our pre-emptive warning texts went a trifle wasted.
