If it was me I'd want to go to Venice but that's because I like boats and the water

I've never been so can't tell you if it's any good because no-one has ever whisked me off there for a surprise trip

I took mine to Florence last year.
Did Rome a while back. Very recommended!

Barcelona is on my list.

Paris is a must see place, only spoilt by the ignorant french people, but the architecture is amazing and as long as you are with the one you 'love' you will enjoy it anyway

How about a biatch-slap or two and down the the nearest high street retailer for a new washing machine?

Hands up who thinks this is a subtle hint? Hands up who thinks Sal is gonna have another dissapointing Valentines day? Seemingly the house I got her last year isn't good enough

OP - you could take her up the Oxo Tower? I read a review once, sounded great

We went to Venice in Jan last year - very nice. Hunt around for great deals on tinternet. Am told Don't go in summer, as the water stinks. Advantage of winter is you can get foggy days/nights, very romantic. Our hotel was right by the station, a bit of a walk to St Marks but frankly when we got there it wasn't so much better than all the streets we'd already walked through; the only difference was the coffee and pizzarias had doubled in price by then.

Don't take her to Paris - I took her last year when you were away and she didn't like it......
