    I am not sure myself as it is Our 2nd in April too.
  • As its evident for most of the couples to go for another honeymoon I feel this idea has become outdated for me. My second anniversary is approaching within a month's time and I am desperate to do something new. Problem is I cant even ask my wife for ideas even talking in other sense, she is intelligent enough to read my mind and I really want to surprise her. Can I get some ideas please?
  • I think it's easier to buy for women - clothes or undies if you're going to be traditional and go for the 'cotton' theme. Otherwise I'd quite like a red nano with something sweet, but not soppy engraved on the back. My hubby is sooooooo not romantic, so i am likely to get zilcho! LOL
