We normally go away for a few days somewhere,we have been to places like Oxford,Chester York and London.

We normally stay in a hotel and think about luvvvvvvvvvvvv.All you babies close your eyes. :)

Nothing like a champagne breakfast to put you in the mood for romance.

We can't really afford it but we do it anyway.

February is our wedding anniversary,my birthday and valentines day so we have a good reason to do it.

We want to go to Paris but have not got round to renewing our passports so we must do that soon. ;D

Bourton on the Water is a lovely place in the Cotswold's to go.  Plus there's lots to do for a sleepy village :)
Can recommend the Dial house hotel, four poster beds, huge rooms and food to die for.
Bit pricey but worth it for a special occasion.

In August 2002 we managed to get to my sisters 80th surprise party in Kent.
Next morning my husband said "We ought to have a family party for our 50th anniversary"
I was surprised as he was teetotal and didn't really go for parties but he knew I did, plus the fact he was in a wheelchair. I had a month to get people to come from all round the country and organise everything. Turned out to be a brilliant day/night
and I had so many group family photos which I had always wanted. Extra special as he died 3 months later.
What sort of things does your OH enjoy? Theatre, meal in a special restaurant? How about a trip on Euro Star. (I enjoyed that when daughter arranged trip for my 71st birthday)
Let us know what you decide.

Apart from your fifteenth wedding anniversary being crystal, I can't think of anything special, other than to have a good old ding dong celebration ;D

Avoid europe yes its romantic but very expensive at the moment hehe

Dependant on what you both like what about

Getting the train to scotland or fly and hire a car go tour the whiskey areas and relax.

You could go to cornwall visiting the eden project and stay in a spa and get pampered.

If you both like cooking you could book into Jean Christophe Novelli cooking school and stay nearby and have some pampering.
