So we made it to two out of the three planned dates this weekend! I was feeling a bit tired on Saturday, and it was raining so the balloon festival and fair didn’t happen – we did make progress on the latest jigsaw though! 😉 On Friday we did make it to Bem Brasil for […]
Category Archives: Our Year of Dates
The date
It’s a good job Dot is roughly in time with the weeks as I’d have lost count otherwise! It’s a bit scary that there are only 12 weeks left (roughly) until she’s here now… In the meantime this weeks date, is one of mine: Go to a comedy night, or if there isn’t one on […]
So we were a bit late again this week even picking an envelope, never mind having the date… I picked: Buy a £5 gift for each other… Thinking caps on! We’re going to exchange at our date next on Friday – to a restaurant of John’s choice (Bem Brasil) 🙂
I’m getting good at this picking game now, or maybe the choice is just diminishing, we are over half way through the year! I picked well again 🙂 Go out for a ‘posh’ meal, and dress appropriately. We need to get this one in soon… We’re going for wedding anniversary afternoon tea this weekend at […]
Ciao! I think if you swap coffee for gelato then we’ve clearly covered the coffee and a walk date, we walked miles! 🙂 We also relaxed, and John clearly chose a restaurant the night he wanted lasagne… They didn’t have it once we ordered but he still picked it… Clutching at straws maybe?!?! So here […]
This week we go on holiday, Italy for 10 days – I’m sure we can tick a few dates off the ever growing list while we’re there, surely we’ll have a coffee and a walk! This week I picked another one of mine: A candle lit dinner at home, with no technology all night. I […]
What a treat – in lieu of not being allowed smoked salmon*, I chose pancakes with fruit and maple syrup… We had this at a leisurely pace following our nieces 5th birthday part – great recovery! * Update from July, I have since found out I CAN eat smoked salmon! Oh well it was a […]
I’m lost on the numbers now! I forgot to pick an envelope on Monday, so here we are on Tuesday evening when the jar was remembered! And it was worth the wait… Breakfast in bed. Kate’s choice, John makes it! Hoorah! As we have a busy morning (hairdressers and a 5 year olds birthday party) […]
Finally a date! We managed to go out and have dinner on Friday without me being sick, crying or falling asleep – an achievement! I did however fail as I didn’t take a single picture… I thought I was going to be sick the amount we ate but it was all good! As previously explained […]
So it’s been a while… I’d like to think it was just a blip though and NOT John being proved right that I wouldn’t keep the blog going. Truth be told although we have opened envelopes we’ve not actually had a date for some weeks… There is many reasons for this from work schedules to […]
