I am not talking sexually .necessarily

We have been through a lot and I am so grateful and lucky that we are still together to celebrate 11 years of marriage.

How about a picnic in a beautiful location- National Trust property etc. That's what we did last year and it was fantastic. You can pick up a few bits in the supermarket tomorrow and surprise him.

He has already said we are going out for lunch to an Italian.

A naked massage? As in rubbing your well-oiled body all over him. (It is Friday after all.)

Wake him up with a bj.

Only 4 posts before the sex stuff started .

Waking him up with a BJ will never happen.

I'm sure just a lovely day of your undivided attention will be lovely for him. I hope you both enjoy it- it's nice it falls at the weekend and you can go out .

Kids have gone to nanny's so we can have tonight and tomorrow together. If dd didn't have her ballet exam we would have got the night free too.

Sorry faster, it's Friday and I'm in a tone lowering mood have fun whatever you do.

But I bet he'd love to be woken up with a bj ;-)

Make him a big fry up

cloudylemonade · 09/07/2010 19:43

Sry, you said 'lunch'...

Hmm...why not make him a few vouchers.

Breakfast in bed

Control of the telly remote for a weekend

60 minutes of absolute quiet

a massage

his fave dinner

a chicken-out card (he can pull it when he doesn't want to do something, ie mow the lawn, bathe kids, etc)

Great ideas there, lemonadedrinker. I did the voucher thing when we were first together. Better get busy.

I had a look to see what the traditional gift for 11th anniversary was (steele ), but the flower associated with the 11th anniversary is "Morning Glory".

I refer you back to Alouiseg's post

BrittanyBeers · 09/07/2010 22:11

Snurk, niggle.

It's your anniversary too. What would you both enjoy?
A matinee at the flicks?
Hire a boat?
Go to the horses/dogs?

Hope you have a lovely day!
