Something for the weekend: Somerset House, Alternative Walking Tours & Experimental Cocktails. Your W/E to-do list…

Lovestruck Comedy And Quiz NightJoin us for the Lovestruck Comedy and Quiz Night, Mon 12 Aug – a night of fun and flirting (and a healthy bit of competition) at The Comedy Cafe, Shoreditch. Ladies tickets now SOLD OUT! Gents, BOOK NOW for one of the last remaining tickets!

Our first date idea is brought to you from our friends at the Bluffer’s Guide: an evening cinema trip to neo-classical Somerset House. Nestled up against the river Thames, this is one of London’s most picturesque date destinations. Normally housing the Courtauld Galleries (and once home to the Inland Revenue), August sees the impressive granite building make room for a huge projection screen. This date-classic with a twist is sure to demonstrate your quirky and imaginative dating credentials.

Now, walking boots/brogues/high tops/brothel-creepers at the ready, it’s time to grab a partner, get in line and hold hands for the Alternative Walking Tour. No, it’s got nothing to do with the Ministry of Silly Walks (one for the Python fans), but feel free to add your own swagger as your trip along the crazy paving of London’s East end taking in the creative, historical and the oh so cultural…

Secret drinkers or early Tom Cruise fans will love our next recommendation: The Experimental Cocktail Club is hidden behind a very secret door in Chinatown. Booking is advisable as this little gem won’t stay a secret for long! We hear the drinks are well worth the google-mapping as, once you get there, you won’t want to leave – good job it’s open ’til 3am. Cheers!

The next Lovestruck Laissez-Faire is at The Hoxton Pony, Weds 21 Aug. It’s fun, free to attend and all are welcome to pop along (even non-Lovestruckers). So tell all your single friends/colleagues and have a drink or two at London’s hottest free ticket in town.

With a miming action to ask if you’d like a beer,

The Lovestruck Lovebot
