What are your OH's doing / did they do on their stag do's?

Ahhh, they've been in my neck of the woods ? lol.

Well my OH is planning on having a couple, 1 to Amsterdam with his close mates, 1 to a cottage in the lakes with his music mates and 1 to chester/aintree races for "family friendly" one, ha don't know where he thinks well get all this money from mind

H2B wanted to go to Amsterdam with close friends, but a change in our work lives meant it wouldn't be possible. So, now he's going to Wales where his family are for a weekend of fun and we are then going to Amsterdam in 2015 for our honeymoon! He's been there a few times and loves it, but I've never been.

OH is having a curry and alcohol night on the Friday followed by some sort of activity, probably some golf and maybe some paintball or bowling on the saturday and yet more alcohol - the idea being that his friends, relatives etc... will join in with whichever bits they want to.

My OH isn't one for going out and getting trashed so he's having 2 nights in yurts in the Peak District and having camp fires. Then on the Saturday he's doing quad biking, maybe shotgun shooting and more camp fires!

He was going to go sea fishing but logistically wasn't going to work...

As I type, my OH is on the ferry for a stag weekend in Amsterdam with future son in law. Will be messy and he's not really sure he's going to have fun. I bet he does.

For his next year it's more likely to be a weekend in the Peak District for walking and then a good meal and a few pints in the evening. Much more his style.

H2B has been on many, many stag dos in the last few years (he's pretty much the last of his large group of school and uni friends to get married)

He has fond memories of a stag do he went on in Spain, and his verdict on a do in Glasgow last year was that 'it was pants. it cost me an arm and a leg, and we didn't even go to a strip club!'

So, although his 'do is yet to be planned, I am certain it will involve:

1) a weekend away in a European city

2) a strip club

I am OK with both of these - he goes away once or twice a year for a lads holidays as it is, and I know he isn't the type to actually leer at women/get himself into trouble. I trust him and all his OM friends, and I know he'll have an amazing time, whatever they come up with for him.

My h2b wants to go camping with his closest mates, music and beer-a-plenty. He isnt keen on the idea of wearing a dress amd going to a strip club. Paintballing or skydiving may be thrown in (as a secret pressie from me given to him via the best man)!

Without a shadow of doubt it will include golf. Whether that be a weekend or just a day, followed by drinking I don't know.

He isn't having one. He's been very careful to keep the wedding date secret in case anyone tries to plan one for him! Yeah, we're boring.

My OH is going to Cambridge for the weekend with a day at the races on the Saturday. I'm doing a similar thing for my hen do a week later...I think he copied my idea!

I feel a bit sorry for my OH. He had this big idea to go and do some zombie event thing and then go out for a curry. He send a big facebook message out to all his friends (about 15) and only 4 got back to him....the rest read the message and didn't bother replying. So he is feeling all low and rubbish and now doesn't want to do anything. Even his Dad said he didn't want to go!

I feel like surprising him with something myself so will be watching this thread for ideas.

OH is massively in to cars so he wants to go for a track day at Brands Hatch for his Stag Do. I've had a look in to it and they allow passengers with you in your cars so luckily his non driving friends can still get involved.

This sounds a bit like my oh's friends!! He's travelled all over for the lads stags over the years and he really wanted to go to Dublin. His bro (aka bm) couldn't be bothered/flatly refused to go out of the area/over night stay/organise anything so another good friend of his (now also bm cos his bro is so uninterested!!) found a really good deal oh got all excited and arranged to meet up with one of his xbox friends (don't ask lol!!) and asked all of that group of mates, oh sent out a fb message to about 12 lads and has had 1 reply!!

i understand that not everyone is in the position to go away like that but a reply, imho is just common courtesy. I just feel like its cos oh is last one to take the plunge (apart from bro) they've had their fun?! Be interesting to see what the response is like for his bro when it's his turn!!!

anyway, rant over on oh's behalf lol!!

he will probably end up going to the dogs, or into Manchester or something, when he cheers up about it all anyway xx

Mine is just having a night out drinking & a curry or something with some family & friends. I'm doing the same for mine, we like to keep things simple haha.

My OH went to Tenerife last month for 4 days, he had a great time. He's having his second/home stag tonight in Liverpool at a comedy club and then some drinks. Something a bit more suitable for dads etc.

My OH is off to benidorm with 9 lads for 4 day, turns out they are on the same flight and staying in the same hotel as a group of women from my work who are celebrating a 40th birthday

Mine went paintballing in the daytime, then out for dinner and drinks in the evening, with some silly games. They didn't go away, all stayed over at our flat which was delightful for me!

Not sure what my OH will do, he's not into drinking, will probably do something with his brother and cousins and a few friends.

I'm off on a stag do with my OH in a month - looking forward to a kid-free weekend, meeting up with friends, pizza, bowling, drinking and then the blokes are going off to play laser tag. I was invited, but the idea of running around in woods being shot at in the dark doesn't appeal, I would just stand there and tell them to shoot me so that I can go back inside in the warm!

They went paintballing and go karting and had a huge row where his best man dropped out. A good time was had by all.

We had the stag and hen dos last night the guys did dune buggy racing and assault rife range then onto a club- he was totally trashed but according to my brother he kept telling everyone how much he loves me all night bless him. No strip clubs or anything but that was their decision, I was cool with whatever as its all just banter.

My OH is going to go Go Karting with all the men in the family (whilst all the women have a spa day) then we are all going to meet up in the evening for a meal and some drinks

My OH is going with 26 of his friends to a local music festival and camping over.

I'm quite jealous!!

I've got no idea what my hen do involves, all I know is the dates!

My H didn't have one.

My OH went stayed at Secret Cloud yurts in the Peak District a couple of weeks ago for her friends 30th - if it's the same one, he'll have an awesome time!! It looks amazing, I'd love to have a hen there!

My OH doesn't drink so his BM is struggling to find something that isn't 100% focused on getting trashed.

The one idea that has stuck is to go to a game reserve in Scotland for a 'hunting, fishing, shooting' weekend with some white water rafting.

OH wants to have a music night (most of our friends are musicians in one way or another) - so will most likely just be booking a room, bringing instruments and drinking! We might even have a joint hen/stag do and all come along with partners.
