Tis the season to be jolly, especially if you have a date. Someone to keep you warm on those cold winter nights (unless you live in a country where you are luck enough to have sunshine!)
Wherever you are, if you have a date planned but are really stumped as to where you can go how about one of these ideas to get you both in the festive spirit:
Ice Skating – Nothing like skating round the ice holding the hand of your date as you go, helping each other and laughing because conversation is too hard due to levels of concentration needed. Avoid it if you are crap and have 2 left feet… you could make a complete ass of yourself and end up bruising your bum!
Could it get any more romantic than this?
Helping the homeless – If you really want to impress whilst feeling great about yourself then why don’t you go help dish out food to the homeless. You will form an immediate bond AND find out if they really have a caring side. Shelter, a major UK charity do loads for the cause and if interested you should get in touch with them.
Carol Singing in the High Street – If you have a voice like Victoria Beckham then keep your mouth shut and just enjoy others making an ass of themselves. Normally mulled wine on tap so warm yourself up with a couple of sharpeners… then join in.
Trip to the Ice Hotel, Sweden – If you’re rolling in cash then you gotta go here. It’s simply amazing and hugely romantic. Check out the website, and if you go you have to check out the Northern Lights expedition. It’s also so cold you are guaranteed a few cuddles even if it is just to keep warm!
Christmas Lights switched on – If they haven’t already been done, go and laugh at some Z list celebrity in your local town hitting the switch and then thinking they are the most important person in the crowd. Again, mulled wine is normally close!

We’ve all heard them, probably the same one more than once. Here are the top 10 sayings when you are doing the dumping or being dumped.
This man should write a book about being dumped (British joke!)
‘It’s me, not you’. (Truth – I haven’t got a clue how to dump this person so I’ll blame it on me!)
‘I need a break from us’. (Truth - Would like to go out and party and see what they are missing)
‘You’re too much of a friend’. (Truth - I blatantly don’t fancy you, stay away)
‘I don’t deserve you’. (Truth – I feel guilty as hell and want to make myself feel better)
‘I’m not ready for a relationship’. (Truth - There are still so many women/men to pull)

I read a fascinating article the other day that stated New Yorkers actually hire private detectives to go check out their date before they actually meet them. This trend is sweeping the city in a bid to help paranoid New Yorkers get to grips with exactly who they are meeting, whether they have any criminal records, levels of education, jobs as well as address history.
These folk normally have more money than sense as private eyes charge around $500 for a background search, and $195 an hour for a two-person team to carry out a surveillance. Is it me or has dating just got all ‘James Bond’!
The detective agencies have proven success however, finding a number of idiots who decided to give a false name or blag they were in a job that they blatantly weren’t in. What’s wrong with these people I ask!
There is obviously a trend forming because loads of sites are now carrying out background checks – can’t be a bad thing, unless you are one of the prize twats pretending to be someone you will never be!!!

Being dumped (especially by text or email) is bound to get you throwing your TV around the room or at least slating your now ex-partner – it’s natural!
The question is, ‘how can I vent my anger to the World?’
Well, some clever bods have set up GOHATE.com a site dedicated to venting your anger to the world.
There is a cracking article written by an angry lady about her ex-boyfriend who was cheating on her, check out this article.
The only bad thing about this site is that it is a little racist and I certainly don’t condone that. Probably some dumb redneck idiot in the Deep South!

According to scientists in Essex, the taller the fella and the slimmer the girl, the more attractive they are. Apparently, for every inch taller a man is than his “rivals” at speed-dating sessions, the number of women who want to meet him again increases by five per cent. The two clever blokes responsible for the findings analysed the choices made by 1,800 men and 1,800 women at 84 speed-dating events across the country.
No chance… and every chance!
For all you men who are fat couch potatoes you will be pleased to know that a fat bloke will not impede his chances of getting lucky, however a fat girl will. Get this; A woman who is clinically overweight, with a body-mass index (BMI) of more than 25, is selected by 70 per cent fewer men while women who are unhealthily thin, with an index of less than 18.5, are no more or less successful than women of normal weight.
