Help! I've got a date

Opinion: Date ideas.

Have a date, but don't know what to do? Don't want the usual dinner or movie? Well then, this article is just for you! I'll hopefully come to your rescue with a selection of my different date ideas. Let them guide you on your path of true love.

City tour - Take a tour of your neck of the woods and surprise your special someone with hidden gems they never knew existed. While you’re rambling along, you can choose the spot for your second date.
Volunteer events - Why not be a bit different with the added bonus of showing how great you really are by heading to a fund raising event or something of the sort? You’ll be doing your bit for a good cause and finding a place in your beloved’s heart at the same time.
Extreme sports - Who doesn't find adventure hot? Surprise your honey by renting out a kayak for the day (very reasonable if stuck for cash!) or by trying out some sports at your nearest sport/adventure centre. Not only is it something a bit different, but you'll also have the added advantage of grabbing a whole load of cool pictures and sharing giggles along the way!
Hit the shops. Split up for 30 minutes and pick out an outfit for your date (crazy or otherwise, it’s for you to decide!) After all that, head to the nearest supermarket and delve into/share some ice-cream. This will a great laugh and will cost you virtually nothing!
Arcade time! Go to your nearest arcade and challenge your date to pool/darts/whatever game you fancy!
Tie Dye -Seriously? YUP! Gather together two plain t-shirts, some dye and a piece of string and get to work tie dying. You’ll have great craic and a cool new colourful one of a kind t-shirt. You could even swap t-shirts if things go well at the end of the evening.

Now all you have got to do is pick! Have fun on your best date ever!
