So this is the alternative to clubbing?

I get sent loads of travel press releases. This one amused me as the hotel's only about two minutes away from where I live and because it doesn't mention clubs at all. (You can see Pacha from the hotel)

Cupid’s Arrow...Poised To Strike 17 Jan 05


Acorn Hotels team up with SpeedDater for some 2005 irresistible Ibizan intrigue

SpeedDater has encouraging statistics from its trips: 50 percent of people go on a date, 200 couples are generated a week and 20 engagements celebrated a month. So if you are looking for love this coming year, nothing could be simpler than to visit the beautiful Balearic town of Talamanca with Acorn Hotels and SpeedDater where you could be part of these odds!

And all it will take to meet the right person is three minutes. So for the fast track route to romance why not go the modern way where you can meet large numbers of the opposite sex in a series of three minute “dates” and tick on your card the people you’d like to meet again…what could be more simple?

And what better place to do it than on the amorous filled isle of Ibiza in the beautiful Hotel Acorn Playa Real where you can spend 4 nights half board from May 25th – 29th 2005, wining, dining, lazing on the long sandy beach of Talamanca or strut your stuff doing optional activities such as kayaking, mountain biking or windsurfing. You will also be whisked away for a day to the lover’s paradise island of Formentera – the perfect get-away for you and your partner of choice. So let Cupid strike in May!

And whether it’s Valentine’s Day or Acorn Hotel’s speed dating week, Acorn give you a helping hand to get you on your way to finding love. Take Acorn’s Amore Advice - Top Ten Tips:

1. Mysterious and Magical - hold back a little and keep them wanting to know more…

2. Flirting Fantastic - flutter those eyelashes or flex those muscles but whatever you do…make yourself be noticed.

3. Humour and Hilarity - a sense of humour is much needed in the love game, so be dark, dry or just down right hilarious.

4. Scintillating Smile - flash those pearly whites and look happy...and remember bad teeth are a no no!

5. Courting Colour - It maybe a cliché but men in blue and women in peachy-pink will win the odds.

6. Dare to Wear - Be a little daring but don’t go overbored…sexy but subtle is the key to success.

7. Listen and Laugh - Be attentive. If you don’t listen and miss the question you could just about blow it!

8. Beautiful beverages - Choose a drink with a little sophistication to make them swoon.

9. Seductively Scented - Ladies try vanilla or cinnamon and men try a little licorice – you’ll be surprised on the effect!

10. Body Beautiful - Body language is big so remember to look approachable and whatever you do don’t fold your arms!

Why not take a handful of the above top tips, add a pinch of Acorn Ibizan island ‘Amore’ and with a spoonful of SpeedDater magic, you have the perfect recipe for love and romance! What have you got to loose?
