5) That was never a likely conclusion in this one.

Apart from those five snags, we have a winner.

Ahh quite a pickle DITG. You could ask her to holiday in Oz in April?

The way the finances are I would struggle to go halves on a DVD of The Wizard of Oz

But some band or other has decided to ruin this plan and a long-shot at romance. Maybe I should have tried to get her into Jools instead.

How about plan "B",

1) Invite her over to your place for dinner and a screening of The Pogues.
2) If you're able, produce a meal with your own hands that avoids giving her food poisioning.
3) Provide drink.
4) Watch Live at Town and Country, and "If I should fall from grace" DVD's
5) Possible same conclusion to your plan "A"

Good Gad, man. Only a bloke could imagine that either of these movies would trump Sleepless in Seattle.

HA! Agreed but I was going along the line of providing her with more insight into the band ! Plus if the meal and the drink are just right the movie should turn into the evenings soundtrack!

For the record, I went with the 6th draft

IISFFGWG

For me, as it is an introduction, I'd put (and not in this order) the following:
I'm A Man You Don't Meet Everyday
Body Of An American
Fairytale of NY
A Pair of Brown Eyes
Sally MacLennane
Streams of Whiskey
Streets of Sorrow/Birmingham 6
Broad Majestic Shannon
Thousands Are Sailing
Turkish Song of the Damned

Close competition would be:
And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda
My Baby's Gone
Bottle of Smoke
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
