So on top of counting dates in weeks, we’re also counting them for another exciting reason… We’d like to introduce you to Dot. Dot is due to make our family 3 at the end of September. Since almost the beginning of this blog we’ve known this news and the dates have been very friendly to […]
So, it’s been a busy few weeks… Hence the joint post! We haven’t even been for tapas yet… mainly due to illness, work commitments from both of us (on different days so we couldn’t even time that right!) Week 16 I opened an interesting one, a little Monopoly inspired maybe?! Add something of your choice […]
On the sunniest day of the year so far (it’s only April so there WILL be more!) I got home form work to find the lounge/dining room in candle light and some delicious smells coming from the kitchen… It was date night! A little late but who’s complaining, I have broken the rules on other dates… […]
Yes, we’re still doing jigsaws! And to make our lives complete for Easter – following a treasure hunt! – my Mum got us a case to keep the jigsaw in! It’s amazing, it fits perfectly on our coffee table and we can zip it up, put it away and the pieces are where we left […]
I’m on a roll, this weeks date involves more eating! Dinner at La Salsa in Horwich This might sound very specific but Las Salsa is one of our favourite haunts, not only is it just down the road from our apartment but once you’ve experienced all you can eat tapas there is no going back! […]
This week I get to sit back and relax! A homemade candle lit dinner, made by John Without help or interference Yes!! I knew it was in there somewhere! 🙂 And I am happy not to help or interfere, or at least try… It’s Easter this week and with John STILL working in London a […]
The only benefit (apart from having the TV remote to myself!) of John being away during the week is him arriving back in Manchester at a time that coincides with me finishing work so we can have a cheeky midweek date night! On Thursday that’s exactly what happened! So with a twist on a coffee […]
Date night this week is a coffee shop date Now, John’s in London til Thursday, we’re at a wedding on Saturday (first one in AGES, very excited!) so there’s few opportunities for coffee, let alone a coffee date. But, I guess that’s the challenge!
Movie night happened in 2 phases this week… Friday night we settled down to watch John’s choice of movie, Blade Runner (I’m useless with films and thought it was a vampire movie!! Funnily enough a friend also thought this?!) but after updating the xbox for 20mins the download wasn’t working properly so we gave up… […]
There is a theme developing here, and a nagging at the back of my mind… This weeks date: Watch John’s choice of movie, either at home or the cinema So John benefits again… Are there any dates in there where I get a candle lit dinner and movie choice? Or is it that if it […]
