Passport Stamps

My friend wants to get her passport stamped on the 29th of February. I am prepared to tag along with her. We both have EU passports; hers; U.K, mine Irish. So where are you guaranteed to get your passport stamped? Preferably within Europe, or somewhere that is not too much of a long haul flight.

I've never had my passport stamped when entering a European country, I think you'd need to go somewhere that is not part of the EU to get it stamped.0

Is not everyone wondering .....WHY?!!! (or is it just me)?:D0 -
Yes, I did wonder 'why' but if people want to spend money getting their passport stamped with 29th February rather than asking their bloke to marry them , who are we to stop them?
