I'd much rather not. Being in PR would put a great big bull's eye on me that I can't afford now that I have Lucy, especially at her age. Some day she'll be older, and I'll run for Minister, and then I'll have my own PR team, so all will be well.
Dinner would be an excellent idea. Perhaps you could suggest it to your lady love? As I've only ever met her at her workplace, it would be rather unseemly for me to extend such an invitation, and she would be more likely to accept if it comes from you.
