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 […]

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 […]
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 […]
This weeks date involves going out for dinner again!! We’re going to be out a lot soon… Or not!! Dinner out and a trip to the cinema. Joint account pays! Who did he think has paid for the other meals?!!
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 […]
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, […]
I feel like I’m a week out here… I might have missed one! This week we’re having a week off (for a change?!) as I picked the empty envelope… Luckily I remembered all the way back to Christmas and the poem that accompanied the jar (unlike John) which said we’d get a week off with one […]
After success at the weekend and accomplishing a couple of dates we’re failing again! We have serious catching up to do, and limited time and energy! To ensure this remains enjoyable and I’m not falling asleep in my dinner, or at the fair! We’ll just keep a list of the ones yet to be done […]
