Alphabet Dating - R Date!

For R date Kirsty chose to recreate one of our dates that we used to go on a lot. We would always go to Pizza Hut (restaurant) that is a few minutes walk from our house and get a favourites platter, a pizza to share and have dessert. Which is exactly what we did! They rarely have the favourites platter on the menu at most Pizza Huts and it's one of our favourite things to get so I was so glad. After Pizza Hut we came home and read books on the settee. It was nice to do something together that wasn't watching TV.

Alphabet Dating - P Date!

For P Date we spent the weekend at Manchester Pride. On the Sunday of Pride we decided to use free cinema tickets to watch The Purge: Election Year and whilst we were there we had Pizza Hut. These are the photos from our date day and from the Pride Parade.

Alphabet Dating - K Date!

For K Date I decided to do a Kings and Queens date, where we dress extra fancy and go out on a date. We went to Pizza Hut first and had Pizza, chicken bites and chips. Then we went to the cinema to see The Boss and played Bowling after. We also made chocolate cakes the next day because I wanted to include something in the Kitchen. We decorated the cakes with marshmallows and chocolate buttons and made them look like crowns.

Alphabet Dating - D Date!

Our D date was in the second half of February, and Kirsty chose leap day for us to do it on. It made it extra special because I always like to make sure I spend the extra day doing something fun. It was hard to come up with something beginning with D that wasn't something simple like dinner/dining out.
She managed to find a street in York called The Shambles which looks similar to Diagon Alley. It's rumoured that the set design team used this street as inspiration.
We also drew the street because we both love Drawing. I'm going to colour mine in funky colours eventually but these are the initial sketches we did on the day.
After that we walked around some shops and had pizza hut before getting the train back home.
It was a really fun, exciting date for a special day of the year!
