I have thought about flying over to Dublin for the weekend with James but the flight times are pants from Blackpool, also considered doing a falconary course for the day but could do with some other ideas please....
I would ask James to organise something but he is useless at doing things like that.
For his 30th I got him tickets to see the Levellers!!
I would love to do a falconary day, if your stuck for someone to join you count me in. I love birds of prey, so majestic and intelligent.
At christmas we went to our local garden centre and they had a few birds of prey in the foyer. They were getting them to pose with the kids so they would donate to their charity. I stood around in the background until the kids had gone hoping that they would do the same with me but even though I donated about a £5 they didn't get the hint that I wanted my photo taken too. Maybe I should have just asked them direcly though lol!!

Once your married they are the only ones that count

Although plastic rings from crackers definitely DON'T count fellas

Any other suggestions??
Thanks Benni, I think??????
Doesn't matter how big the diamond is, doesn't even have to be diamonds it's the meaning behind the ring that counts

Definitely lol, unless someone gives you one out of a christmas cracker, then your entitled to ask for a proper one

Next on my ring list will be an eternity ring but you get that on the birth of your first child and I am still yet to convince James that he wants children!! lol
I'm still waiting for my eternity ring but Scott did promise me that when he sold his car he would buy me a full eternity ring.
My wedding band is just a plain small band and a full eternity ring would finish it off just nicely
As for ideas for your birthday, give us a clue about what you like to do, anything that you've always wanted to do but just never got round to it?
BTW, my 30's have been the best days and years of my life. My life definitely started at 29/30
