Mumsnet Talk

SIL has offered to take dd with her to visit mil and fil in New Mexico this weekend. It's been a long time since dh and I have had more than an afternoon alone, and I'm hoping we can capture a bit of the "old us" iykwim. So far I've got pretty predictable ideas:

new lingerie
bubble bath
wine
a nice meal
no alarm clock or commitments

What else might I plan? I'm pondering getting some sort of toy, but am undecided.

banana pudding - what you list sounds perfect. no children, no commitments, that's probably enough! A nice meal, some wine, some of the music from way back when playing on the the stereo....personally I don't think you need the bells and whistles, I am sure you'll have a fab time. Am very

Oh come on we all know you'll spend the weekend catching up on the washing

Some really good lube, seriously.
If you're going to be at it all weekend the last thing you need is chafing!

Nice lube makes good sex even better, honestly. The two in one type massage oil/lube is nice, we've got a tingly, mint scented one that is nice but my favourite is the durex tingle lube because it tastes nice too, the cherry/pina colada ones are very sickly and quite sticky.
A vibrating ring might be a nice addition for the both of you too.

Have fun.

Those Durex vibrating rings & lubes are loads of fun! Although the tingle one can be a bit shocking if you get sore (so not elaborating)

A cold flannel was needed at the weekend when we tried the heat lube!

So it sounds like I'm on the right track, just need to add lube to the list Thanks all!
