Hi, welcome to the voting Poll for the latest challenge in The Bachelorette.
Please vote for up to three contestants. The Bachelorette and myself can, as always, vote for more if we wish. The two contestants with the lowest number of votes after the poll closes (24 hours) will face Bachelorette's Question Time.
The Challenge:
Randy, Zac, Horatio, Timothy and Pixter......
Miss Mollie likes to chill out at home sometimes, makes a nice change to the busy social whirlwind that is her life. For this challenge you must plan an evening in for the pair of you, including a menu and soundtrack for the evening. Mollie is looking forward to your efforts :)
------------------------------------------------
Randys' Entry
Itinerary
- Mollie will be spoilt with an evening of pampering. The dinner will all be cooked by Randy whilst Mollie puts her feet up and listens to music, or reads, or whatever takes her fancy.
- The dinner is illustrated below, and is served with whatever drink is desired.
- After dinner, Mollie shall receive a pottery lesson from Randy, whose father was a skilled craftsman in Austria.
- Things might get messy, so a quick shower shall be needed. Randy does not presume he needs to join Mollie here, since he is a gentleman.
- Afterwards, Mollie shall be given a drive home in a hired Bentley, driven by someone she really hates so she can sit in the back and laugh about how said enemy is now her staff.
Soundtrack:
- "Us", Regina Spektor - because it's a testament to Randy and Mollie's blooming relationship
- "U.R.A.Q.T.", M.I.A. - Because you are a cutie.
- "Us Against the World", Coldplay - for during the dinner, since it's all mellow and lovely and stuff.
- "Unforgettable", Nat King Cole - for during dinner, since it's sexy muzik.
- "Unchained Melody", The Righteous Brothers - for the post-dinner pottery lesson
- "Use Somebody", Pixie Lott, for a tender cuddle on the sofa.
- "Under the Bridge", Red Hot Chili Peppers, for further relaxation until it's goodnight.
You'll notice all the songs here begin with U, because U R all Randy thinks about. xoxo

Hello and welcome to my task answers:
Appetizers
To start things off some lovely bacon

Main Course
Here we have a lovely steak covered in bacon
http://i.imgur.com/UQTbW.jpg?1
with some lovely bacon wrapped roasted potatoes

and, of course, for the healthy side of things
some lovely bacon wrapped asparagus

Dessert
And for dessert, lovely bacon cupcakes

And in case you wanted to know, I killed all the animals myself.
Music
Now what every great meal needs is a soundtrack to go with it. So while the lovely Mollie is eating all this lovely food she can enjoy some equally lovely tunes. The soundtrack for the meal is as follows:
Love Shack-The B-52
Watch you while you sleep- The Scotts
Made a doll out of your hair- The Dollmakers
In the Dark Alley we met- The Killhers
Come closer and don't say a word- The Kid Nappers
They will never find your body-Dead and Gone Forever
Invisibile- Clay Aiken
Have my children- Willing or not
Poison in her food-The Poisoner
Wind Beneath My Wings-Celine Dion
The End
Zacs' Entry
We shall sit in and watch a few DVDs together - any film Mollie wants to see, I have a love for action and horror but if Mollie would rather watch some romantic movie, that's cool.
Now for the meal, we would have a curry - because who doesn't like curry?
Something a bit similar to this, only maybe without the green rubbish on top:
http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hlxGFZiqsfg/TMF37HCNJ0I/AAAAAAAADQc/GK8_VVAvJYc/s1600/beef-curry.jpg
And probably get to know each other over this, as you do. Finishing off with dessert, and I'd serve us both two ice cream sundaes:
http://www.discountcandleshop.com/images/sundaes.jpg
Mollie can have whichever one she pleases.
We'd end the night by maybe having a few drinks and listening to music, none of this Romantic music that makes one want to top himself. I would go for a more fun approach, maybe a bit of Pixie Lott for Mollie. Or perhaps even listening to a decent radio station, like Kerrang. As myself and Mollie share a similar taste in music, anything works really.
No soundtrack really needs to be planned, just chill out and listen to the radio for a while after a DVD and a great meal.
Horatios' Entry
So yes, for our perfect night in, me and Miss Mollie would have a lavish meal (Ordered over the telephone, Hor is very classy, he'll have you know). Of course this lavish meal would be Pizza and Chips (meat feast not an option as Mollie is vegetarian, although she could get a different kind of meat feast if she plays her cards right.) -wink wink- We would then watch back to back episodes of Maisy Moments and Pixie Lott concerts.

Pixters' Entry
To kick this motherlova off, no episode of the bachelor/ette is complete without the obligatory helicopter ride, so to start the date, I’m going to let you sit on my chopper………And take a trip round my garden.

Then as we land this is the track that plays….
s9y1M-T65mE
I’d blindfold you at this stage (no snooker ball in the mouth though, so don’t worry), and walk you gently through the rest of my garden
http://www.toddsmithphotography.com/transparency/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/tsmith_081101_9900_e500.JPG
and into a clearing where I’ve set up a special performance just for tonight.

After that you’re probably going to want to snog my face off and rip my clothes off. Not just yet you tart, there’s time for that later.
As a special treat, I’ve flown over the chefs of Bliss restaurant to prepare us a meal. Bliss is widely acknowledged to be the worlds’ greatest vegetarian/vegan restaurant.

What better music to eat to than Marvin?

After dinner, it wouldn’t be a tacky television/fake romance programme without the date-ending hot tub scene.

Hop in and hop on.

That will bring the date to an end.
I’ll phone my friends and ask them if they want to come round and smell my fingers, and you’ll be thinking about the kindest way you can let the losers, oops, I mean other contestants, down gently.
