Something small, and maybe take her out to dinner?

A nice bunch of flowers and a nice evening meal at a nice restaurant? You can roll a birthday and a date into one!

23 roses delivered to where she works.

How about you compromise, combine the ideas and get her a nice bunch of what simoran suggested

Indeed. May I suggest something that requires effort to procure yet is inexpensive...

Is there anything she collects? Any interests?

As FF said a meal but how about some nice jewerly not too expensive maybe some white gold designer jewelry. Its not tacky and is very reasonably priced.

from a girls perspective, i hate being given flowers... it shows little thought and effort! go for something a bit more original, especially so early on in the relationship, you wana show her you tried hard!!!

A hot air baloon ride

thanks for the idea's guys.

i am off to bath in a bit, to spend a day with family ( no, not in the bath, you sick little monkeys ) so may get a few ideas down in bath.

were out on her bday eve as her brother is doing a bit of dj'ing at a club/bar near to her. and the weekend after she is away. so a meal etc is probably out of the question for her birthday.

teddys etc are a big no no.

That way, if she doesn't like it you know she's not your kinda girl. Or my kind anyway.

Just take her out for a nice meal. Pick her up with flowers and chocolate before you go out. Easy. Or at least thats what I'd do. Bit predictable though I guess..

she's getting a helicopter ride either on the thursday or the friday. ( lucky ****** ) her dad works for a company that makes or does something with them. so managed to sort it.

so somehow a hot air balloon ride wouldnt suit.

Seems like too much hassle, dump her and ask her back out after her birthday...hopefully she may say yes. You may want to do the same come Christmas.
