Anyway I can't believe that I am writing now when January is almost over. I hate the first month of the year. It is so gloomy and miserable. But now it is nearly over we have Valentine's Day to look forward to!
Here are a few of my ideas for a top date night:
- A romantic dinner for two: It is always nice to get out of the house and go somewhere special for dinner. Some people don't like being surrounded by other couples, but I don't mind one bit! Whether it is a local pub or a high-end restaurant, I think it is nice to mark the occasion with a dinner cooked by a proper chef.
- A weekend away: This is more for people who want to splash the cash I guess and a change of scenery at this time of year will help with winter blues. You don't have to travel far though and even a one night break in the UK is enough to revitalise you at this time of year.
- The cinema: For movie fans, a night at the cinema is a treat. I actually like setting up my home as a cinema on a Friday night. Popcorn paired with a classic movie is something to look forward to. That said, nothing beats the real thing and the big screen is always a winner!
- The theatre: For those who don't like the cinema, take a look at the local theatre. This is such a traditional way to spend an evening and very romantic. It is a little bit different.
- A wine tasting: No Valentine's Day would be complete without a winetasting. Whether you go to a smart organised one in a venue, or try it at home, sampling different wines and Proseccos is a fun way to spend the evening. Laithwaites has a sale on a mix of bottles at the moment, which will start you off nicely!
