    I think I'd rather stay at home if that's the case!

    :eek: Sorry to be crass but its the honeymoon, and having slept with a lot of frogs (or jackhammers as the case may be!) and finally found one of the 10% who actually can go to that higher plane you think is only in movies, I can think of nothing more blissfull than two weeks cuddled up so high on endorphins I can't actually stand without falling over!

    Not to sound like a frigid fuddy duddy but there's only so much of *that* I can do!


    I agree. I can do as much of *that* as i want at home. If i was going to spend several thousand pounds on a honeymoon as much as i love OH i wouldnt want to spend the whole time in a room.
    We have a healthy sex life at home, but i cant imagine just because we are on a honeymoon suddenly becoming a couple of rabbits :rotfl:

    But you don't get enough time at home, an hour a day if you're lucky realistically, this is two whole weeks with nothing but time. And its not just doign that, but actually talking and being intimate in other ways, I don't want to spend the whole time in the room but I run about like someone headless frantically trying to cram loads of stuff in when I'm at home, if I don't go somewhere peacefull I'll just try to see everything on honeymoon and from what all my married friends have said by the time the honeymoon comes you're too shattered to appreciate anything anyway.

    I guess that's the thing, me and OH have had years of nothing but time with each other. Where as you and NIM run around like headless chickens all the time so the idea of 'escaping' and having 2 weeks to yourselves must be bliss. Saying that, I'm really looking forward to me and OH going away and it properly just being us two - but then I have printed off loads of infomation and maps so we don't have a chance to get bored :o

    LOL Tete!

    I think my *drive* just mustn't be as high as Dinah's, I'm not that interested in it. Don't get me wrong, it's good when it happens but it's not every night and we're happy with that! On holiday it happens more but we don't magically turn into rabbits! Actually, the only time we think about it on holiday is when we're getting all after-sunned up and checking out each other's white bits! ;)
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    I'm never bored unless I'm at work, at home there is always something to do, and if there isn't we're perfectly happy enjoying one anothers company! I'd never understood the bored concept outside of school until I started working for the council.

    If we miss a night there has to be a really good reason, like flu or death or something! I never used to be like this, with my ex I used to try to make excuses because it was always the same from about 3 variations, NIM puts a lot of thought into it though and as a result has made me the equivallent of an addict!

    Thank god I'm not the only one! The way Dinah was going on I thought there was something wrong with me for a sec :rotfl:

    Just checked my DooYoo and I'm at 20,580 so very happy with that :j Have my 2 products ready to review tomorrow. One to do in the morning and one to do while I'm at work, might squeeze in a third too. If I can find something!

    At 3*s on STP too so I want to get to about £3 on there tonight and payout stage tomorrow before work. Doubt I'll do it, but it sounds like a reasonable goal atm!

    And, I'm trying this new thing out tomorrow. Getting up at 5am :eek: Was talking about it with people yesterday and I was told it makes you more productive ect :confused: Anyways, it's worth a shot as I could do with an extra boost. Plus it's only 30 minutes before my alarm normally goes off so it shouldn't be that bad.
