Right, been chatting to this lass for a few weeks now, originally on fb but we're onto the mobile now. So anyway, we both hate 'dates' and how it feel's too formal, fake, cheesy etc. but we haven't actually met yet (although I do recognise her, maybe from a drunken night in town :p). We want to meet up over the next few days or so and do something which won't feel datish at all, I don't want to do the usual meal/drink/coffee malarky and it's hard to think of something different with the weather being so damn pap at the moment.

I was thinking something like quad biking or paint balling, but then the problem with that is those things are usually done in groups! I'm also thinking sledging, with the amount of snow we're getting over the next few days we could do that, she's never done it either :D, so i'll need to order some sledges online.

I'm just wondering if you bright sparks have any other idea's? It has to be in the Northwest somewhere. I'm up for doing anything, she's the outdoorsie type lass, already does climbing, kayaking and caving type stuff so she's clearly up for anything. She's also proper interested in what idea's I come up with.... oh the pressure! Oh and I'm 26 she's 22.

So any idea's you guys may have, fire 'em this way! Cheers :D.
 
If you reasonably fit (Not like that, i have no doubt you are :p) why not go for a bike ride, get a route planned, stop off at some coffee shops, then back to yours for a shower ;)
 
Won't your local garden centre have sledges at this time of year rather than buying online? Either the cheap and nasty ones that look like shovels but are actually not bad fun or proper sledges with runners. I'm aware that suggesting real shopping is not far off heresy on here but it would be easier and more certain to arrive in time.

If the weather is rubbish you could always take her to the local indoors climbing wall, chat to each other during the breaks from climbing and relax.
 
Zorbing's good fun, though pricey. Other ideas: indoor freefalling if there's one near you, ice skating, or vigorous sex in the woods.
 
The obligatory TTIWWP.

Just meet up with her in a pub/bar somewhere (and somewhere quiet) fgs, it's not rocket science.
 
Why do you hate dates? Just treat it as a fun outing somewhere. It doesn't have to end in a kiss or anything else this time around.
