I mean yes I admire the dedication and all but it makes stealing a couple hours of his time a little more difficult. I really, really like this guy....please aunts I'm desperate for some ideas.

"let's take a cooking class" kinda thing. I've just found it a little more difficult to find time in his busy schedual to ask him out. He works as an engineer for the city so long hours are the norm, the extra hours are by choice. I might end up phoning him up and asking if he wants to grab a couple drinks to unwind from a long day. Thanks for the help boys, I'll keep you updated. Wish me luck.

 You know...being too creative can actually make you look like a stalker or someone who is extremely creepy...
Planning creative stuff is better when you're actually in the relationship...when you're trying to start a relationship, it's best to be "normal" because you never know what his reaction will be.
Write him a note, send him a text, send him an e-mail or something if he's busy, or ask him to get some lunch whenever he's free.
Getting too creative too soon is going too far too fast IMO.
Good luck

Hey.
Right this really isn't going to work to well. Your first bet is to plan for the next bank holiday. Do something totally not work related and i would say try and get everything done in one date.
That way you can plan the next date as a stop over rather than a date.
are you friends with him? You really need to be for him to be interested at all lol.
Try getting into his work what type of job is it. Could you be a client? Could you get a job there?
could you convince him to have a day off. Have a sick day. Ask him if he could book some holiday off.
If you know any of his female friends who he works with get them to mention it and have him have a day off.
I dont want to tell you other ways because they involve getting him sacked making him ill or aproching him boss for leave, sneaking in to his work............
sorry not much help

What sort of work does this bruddah do? Depending on what he does, maybe you could work the question to his profession. For example, if he's an accountant, tell him something like this-
"Morning, Johnny, just opened up a new account I could use an analysis. How about we count a few beans over dinner Saturday night?" Or just something he'd get a kick out of. You admire his dedication, he'll feel the sameway about your comitment to a bit. Thats all I got sis. Good luck, and don't be afraid to update us on the cure for workahol.
