Whoops....... wrong thread

She likes it. She has just ordered the first five albums and is a convert to my way of music.

This is normally when I say "well they are playing in December" and then optimistically book just one hotel room and hope not to get slapped.

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.

1) I am just out of my own place (and hence single again) and without anywhere suitable to invite a young lady

2) I am not

3) I don't drink. "but you could still provide it" Good point.

4) The occasions I have suggested such films is infinite and the amount of times I have sat through True Blood is equally infinite. The one time I convinced someone to watch Straight to Hell was about as successful as watching World at War while cheering on the Germans

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

Apart from those five snags, we have a winner.

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!
