Cheers guys, some great suggestions! We're both Tigers fans so I think a rugby match would be good. My folks have corporate hospitality, might see if dad will lend me his tickets for one game. Alton Towers sounds great too, haven't been in ages, I'll just need to avoid the Smiler!

fk me, you said unusual and the pick the date that every 15 year old goes on? How about you each go to some imagination classes and come back for another go at thinking?

There are hundreds of things you could do. People have even thought these up for you and bundled them together as packages, from hot air balloons to zorbing to art classes. If you're feeling adventurous, tell her to bring a passport then go buy flights somewhere for a night away. Anywhere in Europe is easy to get to. If you're nowhere near an airport, take a ferry somewhere. Restaurant hop - starter in one, main in another, dessert in another. Get a projector and a picnic, go to the woods/park at dusk and project a film onto a fk load of trees. Do something interesting, and put some thought into it

Pinterest has (if you sift through the crappy ones) a load of stuff you can do ranging from free to £££

I'm intrigued.

Do any of the posters on this thread who insist 'yeah, girls like cock pics', or 'you just gotta play the odds', or 'they're all SWTs', or 'treat them like st and they'll come flocking', ever stop to think and wonder why they're the ones who are relying on the internet to provide them with a date, and why it hasn't happened/lasted in 'real life'?

Serious question.
Careful, you'll get called a 'White Knight' by someone that genuinely appears to believe that the height of dating sophistication is a well framed shot of their genitalia! biggrin

They all LOVE it, the durty wes! thumbup

anyone suggesting football match as a first date has to be aware that they are sending a very specific message to the lady in question, and it may not be the one which is intended.

Third date or so, went to the zoo, came back, cooked dinner and polished off 3 bottles of wine.

So, had a date on Friday which went well, and a second is on the cards. But we've both said we want to do something unusual, because drinks/dinner/cinema are just too normal, dull and predictable. Been racking my brains all day and best I've come up with so far is bowling (still a bit mundane) Any suggestions?
Go Ape.

Yeah thats the only problem, will definitely do a game when they're back on, bonus points if I can 'borrow' some corporate hospitality tickets.

Nail on the head, split up with partner of 4 years on New Years Day and moved back to my hometown. Been a while since I've done the whole dating thing.

Hmm helicopter ride sounds great, don't know if there's anything near Leicester though

I think the best dates are ones where you don't think about it, you just do it.
Then again you should be able to get to know each other at home watching films and chatting as you do going out on formal dates.

For our dates with this carer lady, we walked her dogs. Then we just would go to each others houses in the week and watch films chat cuddle etc.

We have done a few day trips to the coast and cinema etc but nothing fancy and as such no pressure to be anything other than ourselves.

I agree. Oh and there's still nothing in there to dispel the myth that it's your carer... wink

Karting's good in my opinion too but vombine it with something else like drinks / dinner nearby afterwards so you can talk as well. As for the comment someone made about her worrying about messing up her hair, each to their own but if she was more worried about having to put a helmet on than having fun on the date you organised that would be a clear sign to me that it was the wrong person.

I know nothing, but unless you're taking a TV crew and have promised to come back and tell Cilla how it went afterwards, karting sounds like a totally crap idea to me.

Karting is the worse date idea.

Ever.

Just don't do it.
These two are speaking total sense. Unless she's a complete petrol head and/or has suggested she'd like to do it, I'd suggest it's a pretty bad idea.
