The plan

The plan
It’s simple really - 26 dates over 52 weeks. That’s one for each letter of the alphabet from Ascot to the Zoo.

It seems like we're always out but at the same haunts - a cardinal sin when London has so many other things to offer. We're taking it in turns to organise each date and to come up with the most original and entertaining alternatives to 'dinner and drinks'. There’s no restriction in terms of length of time or cost and after each date, we put a date in the diary for the next one.

OK so the idea isn’t original but hopefully some of our ideas will be. One of my colleagues laughed out loud when I told her the plan - yes, I know it sounds a bit too much like organised fun and no, different sexual positions are not a viable option (look out for Alphasex Dating coming soon).

The blog
This is going to take a while so I wanted to share our experience…and to steal other people’s ideas and suggestions over the coming year. We’re also on Twitter @alphabetdating and welcome emails to
alphabetdating@gmail.com.

A is for anticipation...

Today was supposed to be the first of our alphabet dates - the letter 'A'.

I have pointed out to David that IKEA does not begin with 'A' and that my parents driving us there was not romantic. Although we are a chest of drawers and shoe cabinet better off, I must admit that I was expecting more from him.

Now, of course, he has even longer to plan so the expectations are a lot higher. I am preparing to be A-mazed...
