To celebrate Valentine's Day this year we asked you to share some of your best first date stories and you didn't disappoint!

 

Here's a roundup of the best stories we received... thanks for sharing the love!!

 

Claire:

Best date ever was many, many years ago going up Nelsons Pillar. My enthusiastic boyfriend (later my husband) said it would be great !!!! so I agreed, and himself led the way up all those steps with me “TAGGING”behind 😂. Boy was he huffing and puffing 😮‍💨 as he made his way up, and I was having a good giggle behind him. 54 years later he is still huffing and puffing😮‍💨 but I think he could manage a nice romantic dinner for two ❤️

 

Paula: 

Our best dates ever were nights out in Naas when we went to Lawlors, then Haydens then the Capri for chips 🤣👌🏼

 

Patricia: 

First date was a blind date fixed up by my husband’s friend/work colleague Owen,who passed him a note saying "found someone for you to take to “The Harvest Ball” in Rush",she’s 5ft2ins, blue eyes, black hair. Got married 4 & 1/2 years later in 1969.

 

Sarah:

Our first date was a blind date and we said we'd meet in Lawlor's for a drink. I arrived and after waiting for 10 minutes I texted to ask if he was running late, he replies that he's at the bar with a drink. I reply that I'm at the bar with a drink... He was in the hotel bar and I was in the Random Inn, both wondering if we had been stood up! Still the best first date ever... once we found each other! ❤️
