qod in that case i will share with you one of my romantic evening ideas! it was pre-DS but we were living in a tiny one bed flat with a cat (that DH hated!). anyhow, i digress, so i thought it would be good to have some quality time together at home but out of the flat soo... in my garden (little more than a jungle at the time so i just used the concrete yard bit). I made a little comfy area. piles of cushions, blankets etc (artistically arranged of course, not just dumped!) and i had some old fence posts that i put around the area with lots of little tea lights on them (careful you don't put the naked flames too close to the flamable soft furnishings!). It was a really lovely evening. we had dinner out there with a bottle of wine and just had a complete chill away from tv/laptops/mobiles etc watching the stars and chatting. You could take the monitor out there with you so you could still hear S if he needs you
the reason i was asking about being overlooked was in case it got 'friendly'
Hmm, perhaps i should do it again here...
