My American Princess is coming over to see me in 30 days yea Carn't wait. Sorry for boring you with this but I want to tell the world. I live in bolton, near Manchester. Could anyone tell me what would be good to go and do in the area. Was thinking of taking her to blackpool or another seaside beach for a couple of days if theres a better one near by. Another thing is I proposed over the phone, and I'm gonna redo when she gets here. Wan't it to be really special more than just a meal and roses any Ideas ? You lady's must have some real good Idea's. Please help the more Ideas the better

Thanks for all your help

I've always been fond of the "caveman" approach. A club to the head always does the trick!

LOL yea thought about that thats why I asked for the ladies point of view

I like the caveman approach, one of those very lame proposals, you know? Like ring on her dessert, you on your knees in a restaurant, I don't think there's any woman that wouldn't like that. Plus, a man on his knees is always good

try this line......

I'd suggest to keep it open to anytime when it feels like the right time, planning times that you two will be alone in a romantic setting, where it feels like time is standing still - no other distractions... then pull out the club and hit her! propose to her!

I say you just do whatever you think of...make it yours.

well the proposal isnt going to be a huge surprise as it has already been done on the phone. I think the first thing you should do is buy an engagement ring. Yes you may not know her size or what she would prefer, but you can always return to the jewellery store when she is with you so buy something you think she will like, simple and elegant. You could plan a special day for her so breakfast in bed with something really indulgent like smoked salmon and scrambled eggs with a single rose on a tray. You could prepare the food for a picnic in advance (or go to Marks & Spencer) and then take her for a lovely lunchtime picnic somewhere remote and scenic, followed by a drive around the local area, showing her points of interest or taking her to places you frequent or that were part of your childhood perhaps. In the evening you could arrange to take her to a nice restaurant and there present her with the ring you bought. It would be a perfect ending to a perfect day.

Wow. Britty, will you propose to me?

No, seriously, I think any girl would love the romance of you already having the ring picked out, even if it's not her size. It's so much more special that way, like "wow, you thought that much of me to prepare?" It's not even about the ring, it's about the idea behind it.

1. Something private.

2. Something meaningful to the two of you.

Isn't that how it's normally done?

Well engagement rings aren't the custom in every country....though I assume they are in England, but as an American girl, I'd like it that way

[b]Does Blackpool still have those pony and trap type rides around the place?....you have the Tower of course - or try asking at the peak of a really high amusement ride?....lol....just thinking Blackpool here[/b] -

If I were the woman and the man proposed to me at a ball game in front of a bunch of strangers, I'd slap him and tell him I'll get back to him later with an answer.
