London is not only the capital of the UK, but it is the UK capital of dating. With easily the highest population in England and probably the highest number of single people as well (although don’t quote me on that). As such, it should be difficult to come up with first date ideas. It shouldn’t, but it must be because everyone always settles for the usual dinner and/or a movie. The usual kind of dates suck if you could be a bit more imaginative, and now you can with the first date ideas below:

1. The Theatre – Nowhere in England could you possibly find so many theatres within such a short distance of each other so it shouldn’t be too hard to find a play or musical that you both might like. This might seem like a third, fourth or fifth date, but it could be a lot of fun and give you something to talk about.
2. A Museum – Again, there are plenty to choose from, and what first date ideas would be more sociable? In a museum, you have each other’s full attention and can talk about the exhibits as you wander round. If you don’t like your date then the great thing is you can always lose them!
3. Hyde Park – A picnic in the park is casual and related so it’s nothing like heading to a restaurant. If the weather’s lovely then you can have a fab day sprawled on a blanket, in the fully clothes sense of the words!

Whatever you do for first date ideas though, avoid the London Eye – trapped in a pod with a bad date for a few hours = the date from hell!
