      Back in May I picked a date that’d I’d written (and if I remember rightly John was impressed by!): Go to the fair and eat candy floss, if there isn’t one on then go to Blackpool So one sunny Sunday in September we decided to actually go! it was a lovely day, with a small […]

      Now we’re talking, I picked well this week: Go for afternoon tea And I know exactly where I’d like to go, AND we’re actually planning on doing it this week, you know the whole idea of this – to do the date on the week chosen! (We’ll not remind anyone of the forfeit threat!)… Watch […]

      Dinner date, at the Trafford Centre (cheating!)

      Sep

      So in a bid to tick things off the list before the arrival of Dot we may have cheated slightly on this one… We went to a restaurant at the Trafford Centre we’ve not eaten at before, we missed mini golf – I can’t see my feet let alone a small ball all the way […]

      With the countdown approaching, work has finished and D Day (Dot Day) almost upon us we’re running out for time for dates! But still every Monday sometimes Tues, or Thurs!) I remember to pick a card 🙂 And typically this week I picked one that we have kind of done, before I picked it (I know […]

      Now this one is bad timing… There is one Swedish store we’ve visited a lot this year what with doing up the bathroom, our room and a nursery… In fact John is headed back tonight for little bits we forgot! Got to Ikea for meatballs. Don’t buy anything! The second part proves the challenge and […]

      Picnic date (deja vu!)
      23
      Aug

      With the sun finally shining (it is August isn’t it?!) we decided that it was time for a picnic! We had plans to visit friends with a little baby in the afternoon but thought we’d head out in the morning, and similar to repeating breakfast in bed we decided to head back to the scene […]

      Breakfast in bed (deja vu!)

      Posted on 22nd August 201514th April 2023 by Kate

      So John got breakfast in bed on Sunday, as per the instructions he chose what he wanted, although we’re not proving to be very original… I think we just know what we like!! In case you can’t tell on the menu was – pancakes, raspberries and yoghurt. I’d like to think mine was better presented […]

      Posted on 11th August 201515th April 2023 by Kate

      I think my numbers are all askew, I am now 33 weeks pregnant and therefore we should be at least on as many weeks, with me finding the missing date I’m now jumping on a week to level things out! I had a sense of deja vu when opening this weeks envelope! Go for a […]

      Week 31 and the missing date

      Posted on 5th August 20159th June 2020 by Kate

      I knew I’d missed one!! And it came to me in a flash of inspiration, this one was a few weeks ago: Trafford Centre date, dinner, cinema and mini golf  This week I picked an easier one, for John at least: Breakfast in bed, John chooses, Kate makes it!  Great, he better pick something easy, […]
