O/H's 30th...give me some ideas.
Discussion
My beloved turns 30 next Feb. Now whilst this may seem a while away I'm crapping myself about what to do/where to go etc, and would like to start saving for something special very soon. Want to make it special for her, she is not to happy about approaching the big 30.
For her previous birthdays I have had her to Barcelona for a long weekend, been to the Balmoral in Edinburgh for the weekend, shopping etc etc. She has told me she doesn't want to go away, she doesn't want a big party.
When I hit 30 I wasn't with her and went off to Tenerife with the lads, which was fun ! Since then she has made each birthday pretty special for me and I want make her 30th one to remember, but she doesn't want the weekend away or party.
What did you guys do for your wife's/g/f 30th ? She is very serious about the whole party thing, think that would seriously piss her off if I arranged anything like that.
Serious ideas appreciated !
Cheers guys.

I bet if you don't provide a big party with all her friends or whisk her away, you'll never hear the end of it. Especially if she is 'serious' about it.
She will see it as not making an effort, therefore you don't love her, therefore you are a b
d and it's your fault she has wasted her life with a bd and now she's over the hill.

oooo the 30th dilemna......I remember Mrs M 30th................a Monday Night......I'd organised the whole surprise party thing.....Mrs M had been on a hen weekend the previous 2 days...none of her friends had mentioned her birthday...Mrs M went to work (I did a card over breakfast).....no-one at work said anything to Mrs M about her birthday................I picked Mrs M up from station and suggested we went out for dinner.....Mrs M refused to get out of the bath................she was soooo upset that noone had even wished her happy birthday 
.....so there's me stuck.......40+ friends, family and work colleagues in a private dining room of a restaurant round the corner ready to recieve birthday girl..............said birthday girl in bath refusing to budge!!!
(eventually she did and all were forgiven..but I'm never organising a surprise party again!)

Start with a breakfast of fried eggs. Explain how much you like them, even though boiled ones are more pert.
ETA Tell her they wre just slightly out of the use by date too, but you don't mind so much as at your age you come to accept these things.

You must do either or both of these, she will be expecting to be whisked away or a big surprise party.Or you could take her for a nice night out at the cinema, a nice one mind!

Because she wants you to propose
